Raw sewage line break causes road closure at Mockingbird Lane and I-35E
DALLAS (CBSNewsTexas.com) – If you have a flight out of Love Field Airport Tuesday, you might need to find an alternate route.
Raw sewage is leaking onto Mockingbird Lane near I-35E, closing the exit ramp to I-35E southbound, due to a break in the line.
Crews are working to turn off the sewage main that is leaking thousands of gallons of sewage. A spokesperson for the City of Dallas says the repairs may take between six and eight hours.
There is a storm drain located near the leak as well.
An apartment complex at 1111 W. Mockingbird Ln. has been impacted by the leak.
The leak was spotted just before 7:30 a.m.
