ORANGE PARK, Fla. – An emergency sewer pipe break on Thursday night in Orange Park caused detours into Friday morning.
The intersection has since reopened.
The break was at the intersection of Ash Street and Plainfield Avenue.
It’s unclear what caused the pipe to break, but officials for the Town of Orange Park said the main is about 20 feet underground and the city needed help from a contractor to complete the repairs.
Traffic was being detoured around the construction areas as crews worked to fix the issue.
