Algonquin Water Break Slows 31 Commuter Traffic

A water main break in Algonquin Tuesday afternoon left a few businesses and homes around Route Main Street and Huntington Drive without service but repair work bunched up traffic for a lot more homeward bound commuters.  At about 8 pm A village crew performing exploratory surgery with a backhoe still hadn't found the break.  At 10 pm a worker reported they were "getting close."  Village Manager Bill Ganek said Tuesday evening, "They're going to be working through the night. It'll be back working by tomorrow."
