Flooding in Concord, Mass. After Water Dam Break

Part of a dam in Concord, Massachusetts, collapsed, forcing the closure of a major road in town.

No injuries are reported, and the Cambridge Turnpike has since been reopened.

State police say the dam broke Friday in an area known as Crosby's Corner, cutting off access to part of Cambridge Turnpike. Route 2 remained open.

It's not clear what caused the break. Crews are at the scene trying to fix it.

There has been a road construction project going on at Crosby's Corner, but whether that is connected to the dam break isn't known.
