Chevy Chase Lake Drive Re-opens After Massive Water Main Break
The March 18 water main break created a crater that shut down the entrance to Chevy Chase Lake Drive from Connecticut Avenue for more than a month.
Repairs to the intersection of Connecticut Avenue and Chevy Chase Lake Drive are mostly complete, as evidenced by the recent re-opening of the entrance to Chevy Chase Lake Drive from Connecticut Avenue.
Chevy Chase Lake Drive's entrance was shut down for more than a month after the March 18 massive water main break sent about 60 million gallons of water shooting three stories into the air, causing an embankment along Connecticut Avenue at Chevy Chase Lake Drive to erode and creating a huge crater, Patch reported.
Both the damaged water main and the road needed major repairs.
