Crews worked all day to repair the water main break located on Niagara Falls Boulevard near Maple Road, according to the Erie County Water Authority.
Because of the water main break, north bound traffic on Niagara Falls Boulevard between Sheridan Drive and Maple Road was reduced to one lane for a majority of the day.
Update for Niagara Falls Blvd water main break in Amherst........... This COULD be a 24 hour event do to the location, size and depth of the water line. as soon as we get better timing for the road to be opened you will all be the first to know. for now PLEASE drive safe
