CHUBBUCK – Public works staff have finished repairing a street before it’s needed for the city’s biggest celebration of the year.

Following a water line breakage that prompted a citywide boil order, Chubbuck city crews worked day and night to stop the flooding on Hawthorne Road between Bonanza Avenue and West Chubbuck Road. Mayor Kevin England told EastIdahoNews.com a little after 2 p.m. on Friday that the area where the break occurred had been repaired, and that the approximately quarter mile of road would be reopened in “an hour or two.”

While the boil order is ongoing until further notice, England praised city employees for working to fix the breakage before the road is used in the route for the Chubbuck Days Parade on Saturday.
