TOLEDO, Oh. (WNWO) – More residents and businesses in the Toledo area have been placed under a water boil advisory.

As of Tuesday, water service has been interrupted for 541 N. Superior St., where The Blade is located. This advisory will remain in effect until Saturday, June 11 at 5 p.m.

Starting Wednesday, water service has been interrupted for homes and businesses along 2100 and 2150 W. Central Avenue. This advisory will remain in effect until Sunday, June 12 at 5 p.m.

The City of Toledo says recent repairs to the water system require water to be tested for a period of time. During that time, all water used for consumption must first be boiled. Residents are advised to bring water to a boil, let it boil for at least three minutes, and then let it cool before use.

Water should be boiled for drinking, ice-making, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and for all food preparation.

After the advisory expires, normal use of water can resume.

On Tuesday, a water main break requiring repairs forces boil advisories in in downtown Toledo.
