INDIANAPOLIS — Citizens Energy Group has lifted a precautionary boil water advisory for customers on the east side of Indianapolis.
This advisory was a result of a water main break near the intersection of 22nd Street and Dr. Andrew J. Brown Avenue.

Citizens said some customers in the affected area may continue to observe lower pressures until the main is fully repaired.
However, the utility company said testing required by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management was completed and drinking water is now safe.
The closure of 22nd Street is expected to remain in place until late next week. Traffic has been detoured, and drivers should follow all posted signage to avoid delays. In addition, representatives from Citizens have been on site speaking with affected property owners and residents.
