A large crack in the pavement has in essence severed about a 500 square foot portion of the roadway, prompting the Ministry of Transportation and Communications to close the highway from Elm Street to the traffic lights at the intersection of Wellington Road and Highways 3 and 4. MTC employee Eric Davies points to the crack in the pavement which is continuous for about 50 yards. MTC soil testers examining the bank under the road described the soil "as soup". One MTC employee on the scene said: "It could go any minute" ".
