A portion of a street began to buckle in a residential National City neighborhood Wednesday night, forcing authorities to shut down the roadway for a day.
National City police closed down a portion of Rachael Avenue just south of Alleghany Street Wednesday night due to what was described by the city as a sinkhole.
The next morning, crews arrived to inspect what appeared to be a 10-foot stretch of the roadway beginning to sink into the ground. The buckling was creating a gap between two secure portions of the street.
Officials did not say what was believed to be the cause. Crews said the road would likely be closed all day.
