Around 9 p.m., the Boston Water and Sewer Commission announced via social media that crews had arrived onsite in Dorchester and confirmed that water services would be impacted due to a significant water main break. They stressed the importance of being aware that multiple services might experience disruption as repairs began, starting with mitigating the water flow in the area affected by the incident.
The MBTA reported delays before 7 p.m. due to maintenance crews at the Ashmont T stop, which ultimately led to more significant issues later that evening when water from an external pipe flooded the northbound track area. Rather than allowing train services to be disrupted, they quickly transitioned to shuttle buses between Ashmont and JFK/UMass, allowing passengers to continue their journey with minimal interruption.
