A water leak in the area of Vine and 22nd streets that caused water service to be shut down and snarled traffic Thursday morning has been repaired, according to the city of Hays.

A repair is now being made to the sewer that serves the VFW and, once that is complete, sand will be brought in to cover the water line.

Service could be restored later Thursday or Friday morning. One lane of traffic will be shut down overnight in the area of the work.
