INDIANAPOLIS — A large water main break on the city's east side has left multiple cars partially submerged and closed an intersection.

According to Citizen's Energy, a segment of E. 25th Street between Keystone Avenue and Wheeler Street will be closed for most of the day as crews work to isolate and repair the break.

In a mid-afternoon update, Citizens Energy said they expect the closure to end on Wednesday.

Citizens Energy said its management team has been on site and talking to people who feel their property has been impacted by the water main break and that each person's situation is different based on circumstances.
 
If people feel like they have damaged and have not been contacted they can call citizens energy contact center at 317-924-3311.

Motorists should avoid the area as the project continues.
