Summary

West Hollywood’s major water main break near Sunset Blvd and Holloway Drive caused flooding, sinkholes, and forced evacuations—now crews have replaced the 36-inch pipe, but full recovery is still underway. Pressure tests, disinfection, and refilling are next, with no firm reopening date. Residents displaced and businesses still closed, some without power. Authorities urge drivers to avoid the area, with hard and soft closures in place—ID may be required for local access. Normalcy? Not yet.
