Oklahoma City Crews worked diligently over the weekend to uncover the cause of the mysterious sinkhole on Britton Road. Workers excavated the sinkhole Saturday morning, only to discover that a sanitary sewer main was broken. This was determined to be the cause of the road damage. The OKC Public Works Department will be working alongside the City Utilities Department to make the necessary repairs. Public Works has setup barricades to control the flow of traffic, and they will continue to monitor the location for safety. Meanwhile, the Line Maintenance team in the Utilities Department will complete the sewer line repairs. At the completion of the sewer line repair, the Public Works Department will be able to fix the pavement. The City has not issued a time frame for either of these repairs.
