As temperatures began to rise and frozen ground started to thaw, City of Shreveport Water and Sewerage crews responded to several isolated service line and water main breaks across the city, including a break reported on Carroll Street.

City officials said there were no widespread water system issues at this time, and crews were addressing individual problem areas as they were identified.

Interim Director of Water and Sewerage Brandon R. Snead was also in the field checking on crews who had been working around the clock throughout the winter weather event to maintain water service for residents.

Residents who notice water leaks or experience a water-related emergency are encouraged to contact the city’s 24-hour emergency line at 318-673-7600 so crews can respond promptly.
