WASHINGTON — A water main break on U.S. 1 In Prince George’s County could cause delays for Tuesday morning’s commute.

A single left lane gets by on northbound U.S. 1/Baltimore Avenue in College Park, Maryland, just north of the Capital Beltway because of a 6-inch water main break.

The break will cause lanes to be blocked until about 9:30 a.m., Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission says.
