Lebanon, IN – Drivers traveling through parts of Lebanon are being urged to slow down and plan for delays today as crews work to repair a water main break at a key intersection.

According to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office, Lebanon Utilities is responding to a water main break at the intersection of Garfield Street and Harney Drive. The issue was reported earlier today, prompting a traffic alert for the surrounding area.

Officials say motorists should use caution and expect delays while repair work is underway. While no full road closure has been announced, traffic flow may be impacted as crews assess and repair the damaged water line. Drivers may encounter lane restrictions, utility vehicles, or wet roadway conditions near the intersection.

The affected area sits within Lebanon, Boone County, just northwest of the Indianapolis metro area, making it a commonly traveled route for local residents and commuters. Emergency officials are advising drivers to consider alternate routes when possible to avoid congestion.

At this time, there is no estimated timeline for when repairs will be completed or when traffic conditions will fully return to normal. Authorities have not reported any injuries or additional infrastructure damage related to the water main break.

Residents and drivers are encouraged to remain alert, reduce speed near the work zone, and follow any posted signage or directions from utility crews.
