ENGINEERS worked late into the evening last night as a water main burst in Bromley Cross.
United Utilities teams cordoned off a part of the road as they worked to restore the pipe to full working order.
The main is located underneath Darwen Road, with workers using diggers to access the pipe.
United Utilities said that there are many factors that can cause a main to burst.
It might be that they are old or damaged, cracked from weather conditions or damaged by tree roots and building work.
