Water main break snarls Derby downtown traffic

   DERBY - Police are on the scene of a major water main break on Main Street (Route 34) at the intersection with Route 8, Lt. Salvatore Frosceno said this morning.
    In addition to police, firefighters and workers from the state Department of Transportation and Regional Water Authority are on the scene, he said. Westbound traffic on Main Street is at a standstill.
    Frosceno said police anticipate the repair will take several hours, and ask that motorists avoid this route if at all possible.
    Police were considering a complete road closure, which may affect Route 34 westbound traffic for an undetermined amount of time, Frosceno said.
