Water Main Break Shuts Down East Meadow Avenue
Town workers are trying diligently to figure out the cause of the rupture.
East Meadow Avenue has been shut down at Noble Street after a water main broke just before 8 p.m. Tuesday.
According to Hempstead Town workers at the scene, the cause of the rupture in the main is unknown. East Meadow Avenue has been shut down between Noble Street and Lenox Avenue while crews work to fix the main.
Traffic was diverted onto nearby side streets, and workers hope to have that portion of East Meadow Avenue reopened within "a couple of hours."
