A boil water advisory has been lifted following a water main break in Old Bridge Monday.

The break was first reported Monday afternoon on County Road 516 near Cherry Creek Drive. Repairs were made quickly, but the advisory was put in place as a precaution.

Officials say that water testing following repairs shows that the water is safe to drink.

Old Bridge Municipal Utilities Authority customers are urged to run their faucets for 3-5 minutes before use to flush the system. They should also empty and clean their automatic ice makers and water chillers.
