Frigid temperatures Friday morning played havoc with a water line in downtown Senoia. But the break was quickly repaired and the intersection reopened by 11 a.m.

City Manager Richard Ferry said the 8-inch water main at the intersection of Main Street and Seavy Street broke during the night and was first reported at approximately 6:30 a.m. on Friday.

City crews responded, determining the location of the break and making the needed repairs. The work was completed at approximately 11a.m., Ferry said.

Ferry said no accidents or injuries were reported, even though the running water caused a portion of Main Street and Seavy Street to freeze over.

The repair site was covered with “crush and run,” Ferry said, adding that the area will have asphalt applied once the weather warms.
