Water main break closes part of Maryland-Desert Inn intersection

The intersection of Desert Inn Road and Maryland Parkway is partially blocked due to a water main break. Southbound lanes and all but one northbound lane on Maryland Parkway are closed between Desert Inn and Twain Avenue. Two lanes of westbound Desert Inn are shut down; eastbound lanes remain open. On Monday night a contractor working at the intersection damaged one of the water district’s 16-inch underground pipes, spokesman Corey Enus said. Enus said Maryland Parkway would likely remain closed through Tuesday evening and into Wednesday morning, as crews work to fix it.
