The Board of Water Supply will continue working on a 24-inch water main break on Kuhio Avenue in Waikiki well into today, a BWS spokesman said today.

A contractor working in the area accidentally damaged the main at about 1:40 p.m., BWS spokesman Dymian Racoma said in an email.

BWS crews closed the left Ewa-bound lane and the right Diamond Head-bound lane of Kuhio Avenue between Nohonani Street and Seaside Avenue.

Motorists should be cautious when driving through the work area and take alternate routes if possible.

No customers are affected by the break.
