SIMSBURY, CT — A broken water main on Thursday badly damaged a Simsbury roadway, prompting the need for extensive repairs and road closures.

According to the Simsbury Department of Public Works Friday, an Aquarion water main broke on Thursday, July 31, on Seminary Road, causing significant damage to the road surface.

Simsbury officials said Aquarion’s contractors will be on-site beginning Monday, Aug. 4, to make repairs.
