THE WOODLANDS, TX (KTRK) -- Grogans Mill Road is closed this morning at Woodlands Parkway after a water line leak.

The Woodlands Parkway eastbound and westbound exits to Grogans Mill Road are closed, and Grogans Mill Road northbound and southbound at Woodlands Parkway have been closed. Drivers on Grogans Mill Road will be able to make a right turn at the intersection to go east and west on Woodlands Parkway.

The San Jacinto River Authority says the line is isolated and the leak stopped and the water at the intersection is receding. This line is under the southbound pavement of Grogans Mill Road, and officials say they are looking at the roadway's condition. Once water fully recedes, authorities say they will investigate and make repairs.

SJRA says this leak will not cause an interruption in water service, since this waterline provides supplemental surface water to GRP customers, who also have groundwater wells.
