DETROIT – The Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) continues its critical role as a part of the broader emergency response to a break on a 54-inch steel water transmission main at Beard and Rowan in Southwest Detroit that occurred in the early morning hours of Monday, February 17, 2025.
Today, a 19-foot segment of replacement pipe arrived on-site.
In the last 24 hours, GLWA crews and contractors removed an approximately 12-foot section of damaged pipe, and pipe assessment contractors have begun inspecting the condition of the existing pipe on either side of the break location in preparation for the repair process to begin.
The timeline for completion of the repair and returning the main to service is expected to be at least two weeks.
