Traffic Delays, No Water Service Due To Route 9 Main Break: Framingham Officials

FRAMINGHAM — A water main break has slowed westbound traffic on MA Route 9 in Framingham and disrupted service to properties along a stretch of the road, the city said early Wednesday.

The right-hand travel lane and breakdown lane were closed while the center and left-hand lane remained open, according to a statement.

The break also forced a shut-down of water service at 1657-1671 Worcester Road (Route 9), from the hotel area to California Avenue.

Crews from the Framingham Water Division are working to repair the main as quickly as possible, the city said. The break occurred around 4 a.m. and repairs were expected to continue for most of Wednesday.

Framingham officials urged drivers to use caution and expect traffic delays in the area.
