Kingsport city work crews promptly addressed a sinkhole that developed on Clinchfield Street on Saturday, upon identifying the cause as a problem with a stormwater pipe. The successful resolution of the problem was announced on the city’s Kingsport Alerts Facebook page.
Located near Press Street, the sinkhole formed almost directly in front of the Kingsport Chamber of Commerce and the Kingsport City Schools building, and across the street from the Town Park Lofts Apartments. According to city spokesperson Matthew Lane, city crews replaced the broken stormwater pipe on the same day. He added, “fortunately, no vehicles were caught in the hole.”
While the main work on the pipe has been completed, minor follow-up tasks remain. “They still need to place concrete and asphalt. That should happen this week,” Lane stated, indicating the speedy conclusion of the repair process.
In response to this news, the Kingsport community members are invited to engage and share their feedback through social media platforms. They are advised to keep themselves updated and stay connected for more information regarding public services and community affairs.
