City's infrastructure problems continue with 2 new water main breaks | VIDEO

Fractures join list of several this month in Baltimore City

For the second time in five days, the city is dealing with two sizable water main breaks that are disrupting service, snarling traffic and shedding light on Baltimore's aging infrastructure. A 30-inch pipe at East Madison Street near Guilford Avenue broke Monday shortly before 8 a.m. and sent water gushing down Guilford Avenue as well as Fallsway. Businesses and institutions in a 12- to 14-block area either lost water altogether or saw pressure drop for a few hours, including at Mercy Hospital, Our Daily Bread and Center Stage.
