MADISON COUNTY, Ill. _

Alton authorities issued a water boil order Sunday for residents of the city and nearby towns.

The order to 17,000 customers of the Illinois-American Water Co. was a precaution against Mississippi River flood water getting into the city’s drinking supply.

The water company has erected a temporary sandbag barrier around its treatment basins high enough to withstand a crest of 40 feet, but the river was approaching that level.

High waters also were causing new irritations for motorists.

Saturday night, police closed Illinois Route 3 coming into Alton from East Alton as a precaution against the road flooding. Authorities said this will cause some traffic jams and detours.
