Wednesday night was a tough time on Corporation.
water leakA major 12-inch water service line briefly turned the east side of Lake Drive into a flood zone.
The line originates at the water plant and was said to be around 50 years old. A golf ball-sized hole in the side of the line allowed the high pressure water to shoot through the roadway and flood much of the roadway.
Just a block away, a semi-trailer truck was unable to negotiate a corner and became immobile.
The truck driver said he was following his GPS to make a delivery from Ohio to Anchor Glass but was unaware that Main Street was closed down due to railroad work.
When he tried to turn around by following his GPS system, he ran into trouble and had to wait for a wrecker to pull him free.
