A broken water main flooded a portion of the 101 Freeway in the Boyle Heights area Wednesday, creating extensive headaches for thousands of commuters who were forced to find alternate routes through the area.
The broken main was reported around 1:30 a.m. Wednesday at the intersection of Boyle Avenue and Second Street near the Fourth Street exit, causing partial flooding on the 101 Freeway, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Both sides of the freeway were initially closed, but the northbound lanes later reopened.
The southbound lanes, however, remained blocked through the morning rush hour. CHP officials initially hoped to reopen the stretch around 9 a.m., but they later extended the SigAlert for an additional three hours while crews continued efforts to clear water from the lanes.
Motorists were advised to avoid the area.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
