A massive sinkhole in Downtown Cleveland at St. Clair and Ontario opened up over the weekend because of a water main break.
A 10-inch water main broke, said Elizabeth Barlik with Cleveland Water. The cause of the break is unknown. The power to the water line has been turned off and no customers are without service, Barlik said.
On Monday, Cleveland police had traffic controllers and officers in the area to direct traffic during rush hour, according to a tweet from the department. Delays are to be expected.
