“Numerous properties lost water due to the break and the resulting widespread drop in water pressure,” a notice the town issued on Thursday stated.
The main was repaired and water service was restored within a few hours.
Residents living on nearby streets were strongly urged to boil their water before drinking or cooking with it as a precaution.
