Portion of East Avenue reopen following water main break

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Repairs have been completed following a water main break that closed part of East Avenue Friday morning.

According to the City of Rochester, the break occurred at 1800 East Avenue that morning, which led to the City Water Bureau shutting down the westbound lane of East Ave. between Winton Road and Probert Street.

The city says the area was shut down for several hours as crews work on repairs. The roadway has since re-opened.
