MEDIA ADVISORY - All Services Open at Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital Following Early Morning Water Main Break


Between 5:30 and 6:00 a.m. a water main break on Hamilton Terrace interrupted water service to Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital. The hospital experienced significantly reduced water pressure. Hospital personnel were advised to conserve water.

At approximately 8 a.m., we were advised that the break had been bypassed and water pressure in the hospital would begin returning to normal.

All hospital services are open and fully functional. No surgeries or other procedures were canceled due to the outage.

We appreciate the quick response from the Western Virginia Water Authority

While the break is being repaired, Hamilton Terrace will be closed near the intersection with Belleview. Visitors wishing to park in the Belleview Parking Garage should turn on Hamilton Terrace from Walnut Avenue. (See map below)
