Water Main Break Closes Northbound N. 27th Street

One lane of northbound North 27th Street from Cornhusker to Superior is expected to reopen about 8 p.m. tonight. A water main break that closed both northbound lanes early this morning has been repaired. The second northbound lane is scheduled to reopen Saturday before the end of the Husker football game to accommodate football traffic leaving Lincoln.

Motorists are advised to avoid the area if possible and use alternate routes until both northbound lanes are open.
