Honolulu Board of Water Supply crews are responding to a 24-inch water main break on Mokapu Boulevard fronting Kalaheo High School in Kailua.
The break has prompted the temporary closure of Mokapu Boulevard in both directions between Kapaa Quarry Road and Oneawa Street. Motorists are advised to avoid the area and use alternate routes.
Three customers located at two nearby residences and the Kawainui Gateway Park are without water due to the break. Crews will set up a nearby water source for the affected residents as city officials urge them to bring their own water containers.
