The far-right eastbound lane of Northwest Expressway near Lake Hefner Parkway is closed for the next several hours while crews with the Oklahoma City Utilities Department work to repair a 12-inch water main break in the area.
The break is in front of INTEGRIS Baptist Medical Center in the grass along the curbline, but crews must shut down the lane to create a safety barrier.
Those nearby, including medical facilities, businesses and residents, may experience low to no water pressure while the repair is underway. Utilities officials estimate that service will be restored between 5 and 7 p.m.
