Work begins on South Main sinkhole repairs

McAlester News-Capital By James Beaty November 25, 2021


Initial work has started to fix a gaping sinkhole in the middle of South Main Street “described as “big enough to park a Volkswagen in.”

City of McAlester Public Works Director Jeb Jones said Friday he’s hopeful surface repairs on the section of South Main with the sinkhole can be completed soon enough to reopen the street to traffic by next week, depending on the weather.

“We hope to have the road open by the middle of next week,” Jones sad.

However, repairs involving pumping concrete underground to fill portions of a damaged storm drain blamed for the street collapse are expected to continue for an estimated additional five work days even after the street is reopened to through traffic.
