JEA lifts boil water advisory in St. Johns County

ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. – JEA has lifted a boil water advisory covering parts of St. Johns County, including three schools, that was issued earlier this week following a water main break.

The advisory was issued Wednesday after a contractor struck a 20-inch pipe on Race Track Road near Durbin Creek Elementary School, according to JEA.

  • Creekside High School
  • Durbin Creek Elementary
  • Race Track Road Patriot Oaks Academy
  • Race Track Road from the east end of Durbin Creek Boulevard to St. Johns Parkway
