EMERGENCY CLOSURES
NEW - LUPTON DRIVE AT FIRE STATION 16
A large water main break on Lupton Drive near Fire Station 16 may require a
full closure of the road before Tennessee American Water crews can begin
repairs. A large amount of water is currently flowing over Lupton Drive so
drivers should use extreme caution or utilize Fairfax Drive as a detour.
NEW - 4503 HWY 58 SOUTHBOUND
A water main break in the 4500 block of HWY 58 in the southbound lanes will
require closing the right, southbound lane and the sidewalk around the
break area. Tennessee American Water crews are on site and have started the
repairs. There is not an estimated time of repair completion.
King Street and E Martin Luther King Jr Blvd Remains Closed
The previously announced water main break at the intersection of King
Street and E ML King Blvd will require an expanded closure through the
weekend.
King Street will be closed between E 10th Street and E MLK Blvd
E ML King Blvd will be closed between Houston Street and Foster Street, all
traffic will detour onto Houston Street, E 10th Street, and Douglas Street
Broad Street and 12th Street - Repair Complete
A water main break in the intersection at Broad Street and 12th Street
required the closure of Broad Street northbound between W 13th Street and W
12th Street. All northbound traffic will detour via W 13th to Market
Street. Repairs are complete however the concrete needs to cure over the
break area.
Woodhill Drive / Shady Circle / Hixson Pike - Repair Complete
A water main break on Woodhill Drive is now repaired and no further issues
are expected along Hixson Pike or Shady Circle
502-846 Barton Ave
Multiple water leaks have been detected on Barton Ave northbound between
McFarland Ave and Hixson Pike. These small leaks are known to Tennessee
American Water and City of Chattanooga Public Works crews. These are
suspected to be service lines and not main pipes. Some water will freeze
overnight, however Public Works will salt these areas as required.
Tennessee American Water will address these leaks shortly, which may
require northbound Barton Ave to be shifted into the center turn lane. This
work will take place within the coming days/week. Continue to use caution
in this area.
To report water leaks both in and outside the city right of way, contact
Tennessee American Water 24/7 at 1-866-736-6420.
