Water main break in Portland causes flooding, road closures, and potential water pressure issues.

A water main break at the intersection of Southwest 1st Avenue and Southwest Arthur Street in Portland caused significant flooding on Sunday, leading to the closure of the intersection and nearby Naito Parkway/Highway 26 to eastbound traffic. The Portland Water Bureau stated that no residents are without water, but some may experience water pressure changes or discolored water. Crews are working to repair the break, which dates back to 1962, and advise drivers to avoid the area.
