A water main break in Valencia on Friday has resulted in road closures as crews work to stop the gushing water.

A City of Santa Clarita tweet showed Smyth Drive shutdown and covered in water. The break was first reported at 10:23 a.m.

Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies are on the scene and asking drivers to take alternate routes.
