The city said the repairs were prolonged due to further breaks during the repair process.

“Unfortunately, subsequent breaks do occasionally occur after initial repairs are completed as some portions of the pipes date back as far as 1962,” read a city release.

Crews repaired the pipe and replaced a valve Wednesday night and paving crews started restoring the road Thursday afternoon.
