It happened at about 7:30 a.m. when residents reported water gushing out of a manhole on Innes Road.

Innes Road eastbound is closed between Navan Road and Orleans Boulevard, police said.

Thursday's water main break happened in the same vicinity as another water main break on Tuesday morning caused asphalt to buckle. The eastbound lanes of Innes Road were closed east of the Blackburn Hamlet Bypass.

The road was closed until Tuesday afternoon.
