A ruptured underground water line flooded several streets along the bayside of Coronado Tuesday afternoon.
The broken 16-inch-diameter pipe began inundating the streets near Bradley Field around 3:30 pm. The water had punctured the asphalt and flooded the roadways and sidewalks of A and B Avenues and First Street. The streets will be made unavailable until the patch is backfilled and repaired, Coronado fire department spokesman Jason Clements said.
The Coronado city water-service provider had determined that the broken waterline had led to the Navy Base. The water is currently shut off to make repairs.
