Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission completed emergency repairs to a water main on Wayne Avenue between Georgia Avenue and Ramsey Avenue in Silver Spring overnight Saturday. However, traffic remained closed Sunday in that area to complete road repairs.
WSSC crews cut and removed a damaged 36-inch pipe, and a new section of pipe was inserted. Several places in the area reported low water pressure due to this incident.
