A water main break is prompting repairs and traffic disruptions this morning in Hoboken.

Crews are working on a ruptured six-inch main on 4th Street between Madison and Monroe streets.

As it turns out, only one building was affected, and it's hoped they'll get their water service back soon.

Veolia Water spokesman Chris Halloran tells News 12 that improvements to Hoboken’s leak detection and pressure monitoring systems have helped with a swift response that mitigates impacts from damaged mains.

Officials are urging drivers to avoid the area until repairs are completed.
