Water main breaks in North Beach

This was reported to Miami Beach public works department Wednesday afternoon. On Thursday the pipe burst and water was turned off, a big hole was dug and after a few hours the pipe was fixed and water was on again. The crew chief rejected my theory that our infrastructure was in poor shape. His verdict: "It's the cold weather."

This was in the 8600 block of Byron Avenue in Miami Beach. The crew had three other breaks to attend to, they said. Is that healthy infrastructure?
