Fairway Drive Closed Due to Water Main Break

Fairway Drive between South Shore and Shagbark is closed while crews fix a large water main break.

The water main break occurred about 1:30 a.m. Friday, officials from Fairfax Water said. The break caused a large hole in the pavement.

Water service was restored to homes in the neighborhood about noon, Fairfax Water said.

As of 2 p.m., crews had stopped the leak and were working on putting pavement back in place. The road will be closed at least until this evening, Fairfax Water said.
