Large water main leak spotted in N. Harris Co. has been going on for a week, neighbor says

A large water main leak in northwest Harris County, Texas, has been causing problems for residents and commuters alike. According to neighbors, the leak has been ongoing for at least a week, with crews now working to clear it.

The leak was spotted on Rushcreek near Northborough in front of an apartment complex. Witnesses report that water is flowing into the streets, posing a hazard to drivers and pedestrians. Crews have begun closing off the area and digging up the pavement in an effort to address the issue.

"It's been going on for at least a week," said a local resident who wished to remain anonymous. "It's a huge problem because it's in a pickup-and-drop-off zone with steady traffic."

The water main leak is causing concern for residents, commuters, and local authorities. Crews are working to clear the issue as quickly as possible, but more information is needed.

omg this water main leak is like crazy 🀯 i mean i live like 2 miles from that apartment complex and every time it rains or something i can feel the rumble of the water flowing through the streets lol my cousin works in houston and she told me about this leak on friday and now its like a whole big deal πŸ’¦ idk how they didnt notice it sooner tho? πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ anyway hope they fix it ASAP so we dont have to deal with more traffic jams πŸš—πŸ˜©
 
I'm kinda surprised that it's been going on for a week already, you'd think they'd know where to fix the leak by now πŸ€”. I mean, I've seen some pretty major infrastructure issues in my time, but this one seems like a real head-scratcher. Hopefully, they get it sorted out soon, 'cause it's gotta be a pain for the neighbors who live near the complex.
 
ugh I'm having a major brain fart right now lol like what's going on with water mains anyway? do people get paid to just deal with this kinda stuff all day? it seems so stressful for the crew working on the leak πŸ€―πŸ’¦ idk how much it costs to fix or replace a main but i guess it's better than having no water at all. like when I was in college, our dorms had a burst pipe and we were out of hot water for days lol what was that like?
 
Ugh I hate days like this πŸ€•! Can't we just have one day without a water main leak around here? I mean, I know it's not the end of the world, but come on! It's like, what even is the deal with these big corporations and their pipes? Can't they just fix them before they break?! πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I was driving by that area yesterday and I saw all the crews digging up the pavement. I thought maybe it would be done by now, but nope! Still having issues. And can you believe it's in a busy pickup-and-drop-off zone? Like, how are people supposed to get around?! 😩

I feel bad for the residents, though. They're already dealing with enough stress without this leak causing them more problems. Maybe they should just have a community meeting or something to talk about it and come up with some solutions together 🀝
 
I'm not sure why they're still digging up the pavement after a week πŸ€”... I mean, I get it, water main leaks are no joke, but don't they have better equipment for this kind of thing? It's just causing more traffic and hassle for everyone involved πŸš§πŸš—. And what about the people living in those apartments nearby? They're probably getting tired of all the noise and disruption πŸ˜’. At least crews are out there trying to fix it, but I wish they'd give us some updates on when we can expect everything to be back to normal ⏰.
 
THE WATER MAIN LEAK IS SUCH A BIG DEAL RIGHT NOW!!! I MEAN, CAN YOU IMAGINE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND SEEING WATER FLOWING EVERYWHERE?? IT'S LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF A MOVIE!!! I HOPE THEY GET IT FIXED ASAP BECAUSE IT'S ALREADY CAUSING TONS OF TRAFFIC PROBLEMS 🚧😬. I FEEL SORRY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS ON A DAILY BASIS, ESPECIALLY IN SUCH A POPULAR PICKUP-AND-DROP-OFF ZONE. FINGERS CROSSED THAT THE CREWS CAN GET IT FIXED QUICKLY!!! πŸ’ͺ
 
Ugh, can't believe this water main leak in Harris County is still going on for a week πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ! I mean, come on, how hard is it to fix one pipe?! The fact that there's steady traffic and people are having to navigate through this mess is just ridiculous. And what really gets my goat is that the local resident who spoke up said it's been going on for at least a week... like, didn't anyone else notice? πŸ€” It's not like it's some hidden gem of an issue or anything. Anyway, hope the crews can get this sorted out ASAP so I don't have to drive through the mess 😩
 
Ugh, great timing πŸ™„, just what we need - a water main leak to make our commute even more exciting πŸ’§πŸ˜’. I mean, who needs functional infrastructure when you've got a nice big puddle of water to splash around in? It's not like it's going to cause any problems or anything... except maybe for the residents who have to deal with it on their daily drives πŸš—πŸŒŠ. And let me guess, the authorities are all like "don't worry, we've got this" while secretly counting down the minutes until they can just slap a temporary fix and move on πŸ’ΈπŸ•°οΈ. Can't wait for that 3 p.m. update, I'm sure it'll be super informative πŸ“ΊπŸ˜΄.
 
πŸš§πŸ’¦ OMG, a major water main leak in northwest Harris County is causing chaos for locals & commuters! πŸ™…β€β™‚οΈ It's been going on for WEEKS and it's getting crazy! πŸ’₯ They're working hard to fix the issue but it's just so frustrating. I feel bad for those residents who have to deal with this daily 🀯. Crews are digging up the streets and closing off the area which is a total pain in the neck 🚧. Hope they get it fixed ASAP! ⏰ #WaterMainLeak #HoustonTraffic #FixItAlready
