Water main break forces road closures in Fort Lauderdale

FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) - A bad break caused traffic trouble in Fort Lauderdale.

Crews shut down roads this Memorial weekend as they repaired a water main break at Seabreeze Boulevard and Southwest 5th Street.

Crews were repairing a 12-inch pipe.

According to the city’s website, the repair and repaving work won’t be finished until next week, so it’s best to avoid that area of downtown Fort Lauderdale.
