This morning, part of a busy road in San Franciscos cow hollow neighborhood is closed after a water main break caused a flood and a huge sinkhole. So heres the map so you can see where it happened. The break was on fillmore at union and then about a block away, thats where the sinkhole opened up on green. And it has really just ballooned in size from there. Look at these images. This is from sky seven overhead. So crews have been working to repair this all night long. Abc seven News Reporter lena howland live there this morning with the very latest developments. Good morning, lena. Hey there. Good morning to you. The good news here is that that water main has already been fixed and replaced, but crews remain on scene at this hour. Just about a block up the street from where we are working to get the severely damaged road fixed up. Now, if you take a look at this video, this sinkhole, huron green, ballooned in size as a result of that water main break. Just look at these images. Our sky seven caught overhead during the day. This caused some businesses like the wilder sf bar to become flooded with mud, water and sand. Its utter chaos. I mean, the floor is caked in mud and then underneath that, a layer of water. San francisco has pipes that are well over 100 years old. Some of them are brick. This one was a cast iron and that was a spokesman for the San Francisco Public Utilities commission. He says while there is a multibillion dollar plan to improve infrastructure, including replacing pipes across the city, crews tell us the water main that broke was installed back in 1949. Now normal Water Service has since been restored to this neighborhood. But of course, crews remain on scene working to get this cleaned up. So what that means for you, if youre headed out the door this morning, youre going to want to avoid this area because as you can see behind me there are still multiple blocks shut down.
