Sewer pipe break in Orange Park causes detours that could spill over into the weekend

ORANGE PARK, Fla. – An emergency sewer pipe break on Thursday night in Orange Park is causing detours that could last throughout the weekend.

The break is 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 requires a contractor’s assistance to complete the repairs.

Traffic will be detoured around the construction areas as crews work to fix the issue.

Officials will have a better idea of the repair timeframe once they meet with the contractor.
