Water Main Break Disrupts Traffic, Floods Streets

DENVER (CBS4)- A water main break disrupted traffic on Evans Avenue near Santa Fe Drive on Friday afternoon. Water service was also suspended for several hours.

Denver Fire told CBS4 that the large water main break was at Evans and Galapago. It was unclear what caused the break.

Evans was closed from Huron to Galapago.

Copter4 flew over the water main break where there was a lot of water over all lanes of traffic.

Water was rushing down the street and pooled up in areas near a parking lot.

There were some apartments near the break, along with a business.

Traffic was moving slowly through the area. Denver Water said water service would be restored by midnight.
