Unseen Dangers
This video shows a water main break on East Eldridge St (Feb. 2, 2026). While the pavement may look intact, the ground underneath is compromised. The soil is being washed away with the flow of water surfacing from the water main break.

The flow of water creates sink holes.
These sinkholes can be located away from where the water is surfacing.
Never drive near or over pavement that appears sunken in or bulging.
