WEST JORDAN — Crews this morning are busy fixing two water mains in West Jordan that have broken spewing a large amount so of water in the air and onto the roads.

The water main breaks are located at 7265 S 2700 W and near 9000 S 2700 W. Both breaks have caused damage to the nearby roads as well as some flooding at a home near 7200 S.

The breaks have cause 2700 W to be closed between 7200 S and 9000 S while Fire and Public Works fix the main breaks.

Police are also on the scene directing traffic and removing black ice with a salt truck as it is being created by the cold temperatures.

There is no estimate yet on how long the road will be closed.

We want to hear from you.
