This is an important message from the City of Friendswood Public Works Department.
The City of Friendswood receives our water supply from two main sources, both of which come from the City of Houston. One of these main water lines has recently developed a major leak in the vicinity of State Highway 3 and El Dorado Blvd.
As a result, the City of Houston will shut down this water line and begin major repairs beginning tonight at 7 p.m. Work is expected to be complete by the end of this weekend.
The City of Friendswood is already under voluntary outdoor watering limitations, and as a result of this unexpected water leak, it is important that Friendswood residents suspend all outdoor watering through this weekend.
Water pressure is expected to be abnormally low during this time, and all conservation efforts are very important as they will help to maintain adequate water pressure levels throughout the city.
For more information, please contact the City of Friendswood at 281-996-3250.
