WSSC crews are on the scene of a small water main break that could block off part of Bethesda Avenue on Tuesday.

The break in a 12-inch pipe has water trickling out of the roadway in the eastbound lane of Bethesda Avenue near its intersection with Woodmont Avenue.

A WSSC supervisor arrived at the scene around 8:15 a.m. As of 8:30 a.m., the roadway wasn’t closed, but expect that to change as crews dig to find the pipe break.
