An emergency water shutdown is in effect for several streets in Ogden due to a pipeline requiring immediate repair, according to a notice posted to the city's website. The shutdown affects Vitt Drive from Fowler Avenue to 925 E, 925 E from Vitt Drive to 1st Street, and 1st Street from Quincy Avenue to 925 E.
The shutdown is expected to impact hydrants in the area. Service restoration is estimated for 10:30 a.m. on Oct. 7, 2026.
Residents in the affected area may experience discolored water as a result of the shutdown. Officials recommend running the cold water faucet in a bathtub until the water clears to help flush home water lines. It is recommended that residents do not use hot water or wash light-colored laundry until the water runs clear. Once repairs are complete, water crews will flush lines in the area.
Questions regarding the situation can be directed to 801-629-8321 during business hours. Residents should notify city officials if discolored water persists after the flushing process.
