ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A water main break in Alexandria could disrupt traffic even into the evening rush hour.

The problem on King Street is westbound at Interstate 395, where one lane gets by to the left.

The closed lanes to the right include the exit ramp from I-395 south that is closed to traffic trying to access King Street westbound from the highway.

An 8-inch water line is broken.

Virginia American Water says no customers are without service because water is being rerouted during repairs that could take all day.
