Unmanned City of Columbia Police Cars blocked the intersection of the Public Square at Greensburg and, in the far distance, the High Street/Greensburg Street intersection by Stotts-Phelps-McQueary Funeral Home, while a Pyles Concrete truck, brightest tail lights in the very center of the frame, poured a special, quick set up concrete. Barry Stotts of Stotts Construction expected to have steel plates over the concrete and Greensburg Street re-opened to traffic by around 6amCT, this morning. During the 9 hour period the work was underway, a water main was broken, he said, and gave a heads up to expect a Columbia/Adair County Utilities District (CAUD) boil water advisory to be issued this morning. - ED WAGGENER Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
