Northbound lanes on Circle Drive between 33rd Street and Airport Drive re-open following water main repair
Northbound lanes on Circle Drive between 33rd Street and Airport Drive re-opened to traffic just prior to 6 a.m. today following necessary restoration work after a water main break. City crews had been working since Tuesday morning to complete repairs.
The repairs were prolonged due to further breaks occurring during the initial repair. Unfortunately, subsequent breaks do occasionally occur after initial repairs are completed as some portions of the pipes date back as far as 1962. Crews worked Wednesday night both repairing the pipe and replacing an adjacent valve that had broken. The paving contractor arrived on Thursday afternoon to complete roadwork restoration.
The City would like to thank everyone for their patience during this repair and the unexpected delays it may have caused.
