Lanes reopen on Route 51 in Uniontown after water main break

UNIONTOWN, Pa. — UPDATE: All lanes have reopened.

A water main break has Route 51 in Uniontown down to one lane.

Our crew at the scene said one lane has since reopened while the other remains closed.

Officials said there’s no estimate of how long the break will take to repair.
