Crews expect to finish repairs and reopen the bridge on Howell Mill Road on Wednesday evening, Channel 2 Action News reported.

The railroad bridge at 14th Street, shut down Tuesday because of a water leak, passed an inspection early Wednesday, but the heavily traveled road remained closed at noon while crews tried to determine what caused a small sinkhole in the pavement just off the bridge.

The city’s Department of Watershed Management initially said that a leak had possibly damaged the bridge.

All lanes of Howell Mill Road are closed near 14th Street.
