Water Main Breaks Disrupt Multiple U.S. and UK Locations

A water main break in Colorado Springs led to the closure of southbound South Academy Boulevard between Hancock Expressway and Jetwing Drive, with northbound traffic reduced to one lane. Colorado Springs Utilities expects to reopen the lanes by Thursday afternoon. In Rockleigh, a water main break caused a significant roadway collapse, which swallowed a car, though the driver was unharmed. Crews repaired the break, and the road reopened by Friday evening. In Plymouth, the Derrys Cross Roundabout was partially closed due to a tractor colliding with a water main valve, causing delays. In York, a burst water main on Walmgate led to road closures and bus route diversions, with the road to be reopened once deemed safe.
