A water main break occurred outside Alta Bates Summit Medical Center on Friday morning, causing service interruptions in the area. The incident involved an 8-inch pipe from 1976, situated about eight feet underground. It began around 6 a.m. and led to water flooding down Hawthorne Street until EBMUD employees were able to halt the flow and start repairs. Part of Hawthorne Street was closed, but the hospital confirmed no impact on patient care and that no damage was sustained to the structure. Full service was restored by 2 p.m.
