BPUB: Emergency closes Media Luna Road

A broken water main is interrupting the flow of traffic in Brownsville.

On Tuesday, the Brownsville Public Utilities Board announced a temporary closure of a section of Media Luna Road from Primrose Lane to Old Alice Road.

The closure started Tuesday, and officials expect the closure to contineu through Monday, April 25.

Crews will be repairing a 10-inch water main line buried in the middle of the street.

Traffic will be detoured until work is completed. All construction dates and times are approximate, and the end date and time may vary due to the nature of weather, soil conditions and job provisions.

“BPUB, Texas Department of Transportation and City of Brownsville departments have coordinated on this effort to make it a safe and efficient operation,” BPUB stated Tuesday in a press release. “BPUB apologizes for any inconveniences the closure may cause.”
