A broken water main forced a city crew to close some lanes near 44th and Sheridan Monday morning.

A city crew fixed the break in the 10-inch water line later that day after tearing out part of the street to work on it.

The crew closed all northbound lanes and shifted the lanes so one lane of northbound traffic is using one of the southbound lanes.

Lara Weber from the City of Tulsa said a contractor will repair the street which will take a few days. Until that time, Sheridan will continue to be one lane in each direction.

Weber said there is also a leaking valve on the water line that the city also needs to repair and will do so in the next few days.
