ROSS TOWNSHIP, Pa. — A water main break forced the closure of a road in Ross Township early Thursday morning.
The break in a 6-inch line was reported about 12:30 a.m. on Rochester Road near Virginia Terrace. Part of Rochester Road began to buckle.
Rochester Road was closed between Route 19 and Glenmore Avenue until about 8 a.m.
Crews from West View Water Authority were able to shut the water off just after 2 a.m. Repairs were completed before Rochester Road completely reopened.
Water service was impacted for about 12 customers, officials said.
