Busted Water Main at Kirby and West Alabama, 12:30 PM Jan. 31

013109_water.jpg At about 12:30 PM this afternoon Houstonist was sitting in traffic at Kirby and West Alabama. Must be that blasted construction, you say? Absolutely. But the icing on the cake was a busted water main shooting a fountain about 6 feet up and flooding the intersection. We were able to capture it on our trusty camera phone. Avoid it if you can.

Awesome! This is the second water main construction has busted in that area. Umm... call before you dig!

Funny, I took almost that exact same picture using my camera phone.
