Elkin Public Works employees spent several hours Saturday morning repairing a 6-inch water main on Ivy Circle.

The leaking waterline was reported by neighborhood residents who noticed a decrease in water pressure.

Public Works Director Kevin Wilson said the age of the main and type of material may have played a part in the outage. "Sometimes the dry weather causes the dirt to shift around the pipe causing a leak, he said.

Residents from Ivy Circle to Brookwood were without water for two to three hours.
