CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A large sinkhole has closed part of West 70th Street in Cleveland’s Detroit-Shoreway neighborhood.

Cleveland Water crews closed part of the street near Father Caruso Drive, just north of Detroit Avenue, as they worked to repair the sinkhole Monday afternoon.

The sinkhole was caused by a water main break coupled with a sewer collapse, said Jason Wood, the chief of public affairs for Cleveland’s Department of Public Works.

Cleveland Water learned of a water main leak Sunday afternoon. The street caved in as crews were excavating Monday to repair the leak, Wood said.

Cleveland Water estimates that nearby residents should have water service restored by Monday evening, Wood said.

Crews are still assessing the sinkhole. It’s currently unclear when it will be repaired and the road will be reopened, Wood said.

The sinkhole is located near a construction site for a housing development, and just down the street from the Old Lady of Mount Carmel school and church.
