LUZERNE COUNTY, Pa. — UPDATE:

Pennsylvania American Water now says the break on Main Street in Duryea Wednesday morning is not on the four-inch main, but is instead on a line to a fire hydrant. Pennsylvania American Water said no homes or businesses are affected by the break. 

Original story

Part of Main Street in Duryea is closed after a water main break Wednesday morning. 

Pennsylvania American Water said the four-inch main is along Main Street between Stephenson Street and Major Lane. 

The water company repaired the water main Tuesday night, but it broke again Wednesday morning. 

Traffic is being detoured from the 200 block of Main Street to Lackwanna Avenue and Elm Street while crews fix the break. 

Around 90 homes and businesses are affected, and Pennsylvania American Water said the repairs should be completed later Wednesday.
