Officials now think they know what may have caused the sink hole in Downtown Burlington at the corner of Valley and Main Street.
They believe a brick structure underneath the street allowed water to collect and wash away areas. They also found a steam pipe which was insulated with wood that’s rotting away and may have also been part of the issue.
When we talked to Steve Hoambrecker with Public Works yesterday, he said they continue to work on the hole and hope to have it fixed by the end of this week, depending on the availability of asphalt.
