YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A water main break that began before dawn Monday turned Covington Highway into a river, forcing road closures that persisted nine hours later and delayed openings for some businesses.

DeKalb Watershed Management said motorists can expect delays and asked that drivers avoid the area. Covington Highway is closed to traffic between DeKalb Medical Parkway and Wellborn Road.

Watershed officials didn’t reveal how long repairs would take, but said people living and working in the area could experience interruptions in water service.
