In a surprising turn during the Halloween festivities, a stray vehicle turned into an urban geyser along Oviedo Blvd last night. By striking a fire hydrant, the northbound lanes between Mitchell Hammock Road and Center Lake Lane closed.
According to the City of Oviedo statement, emergency utility repairs will force the area to remain vehicle-free until at least 5 p.m. today as workers scramble to mend the unexpected rupture to the city's waterworks.
Commuters are advised to find alternate routes. The city has set up traffic measures to guide vehicles safely around repair work on Oviedo Blvd and urges drivers to exercise caution in the area.
