Water was out for 19 West Hartford homes after a water main break on Fern Street between Clifton Avenue and North Main Street on Wednesday, but service has since been restored.
The eight-inch main installed in 1948 was shut down from 10:05 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., affecting homes from 494 Fern Street to Clifton Avenue, according to MDC.
West Hartford Public Works Director John Phillips advised drivers to avoid Fern Street in the area earlier today and to instead take Farmington Avenue.
