Street Collapses in Lubbock After Water Main Bursts
The City of Lubbock issued a news release on Sunday, April 7, stating that "parts of the roadway near 9th Street and Quaker Avenue caved in today, after a water main burst Saturday, April 6."
The release also stated that The City of Lubbock Water Utilities Department will begin repairing the road on Monday, April 8.
