ORANGEVALE, Calif. — A water main break in Orangevale flooded a neighborhood and is closing roads Wednesday.

California Highway Patrol said a water main break happened just before 6:15 a.m. along Pershing Avenue. The road is closed between Chestnut Avenue and Filbert Avenue.

Pershing Avenue is estimated to remain closed in the area for the majority of the day, according to California Highway Patrol.

The water was flowing more than half a mile from the break, according to the Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District. The fire district said they were close evacuating multiple neighborhoods, but the water district was able to control the water flow.

Pershing Elementary School is not currently affected and is operating as normal, according to California Highway Patrol.
