A major water main break in New Orleans caused widespread flooding and a citywide boil water advisory, highlighting aging infrastructure.
A major water main break at South Carrollton and Panola Street early Monday caused severe flooding and triggered a citywide boil water advisory affecting Uptown, the French Quarter, Central Business District, and surrounding areas.
Water service was shut off, streets flooded with up to two feet of water, and repairs began immediately.
Officials urged residents to use boiled or bottled water for drinking, cooking, and hygiene, especially those with weakened immune systems.
The incident marks the second major break in the area within two weeks and the second on Panola Street this year.
City leaders cited aging infrastructure and lack of predictive technology, with officials seeking federal funding for leak-detection systems.
