For those living in or traveling through Dunedin, a bit of a snag has brought some inconvenience this week. According to the city's official website, a water main break at the intersection of Bayshore Boulevard and Lee Street is the culprit behind several road closures in the area.
Drivers heading from the north are advised to reroute via Wilson to MLK to Skinner as the city works to address the issue. With work predicted to extend through the weekend and the road expected to reopen by Monday, August 19, the city's statement, noted that avoiding the area is wise if you're looking to steer clear of traffic delays. It's a bit of an unanticipated hiccup, but updates will be forthcoming as they occur.
The emergency break which sprayed the unfortunate news across Dunedin's doorstep, happened directly across from Weaver Park. The severity of the break means crews are on-site, getting down and dirty with repairs and working tirelessly to restore the flow of water and normalcy to the residents' day-to-day life.
For those seeking more information on the specific closures and detours, the city's website is the optimal point of reference for live updates, the latest developments and any further recommendations for getting around the city. Patience, it seems, will be as crucial as the wrenches turning in the ground to mend, this breach of Dunedin's aquatic arteries.
