Looks like a Figiola truck, which would probably mean water main. It must have been an emergency repair for them to shut down Hicks Street. They’re quick…wouldnt be surprised to see them gone by day’s end.

I phoned this in to 311 a couple of days ago, because there was a slight depression in the street that was full of water, and despite water being splashed out of it by passing traffic, it kept refilling. It was DEP complaint #184951564.
They told me the pipe in question was nearly a hundred years old, and was a water main break in the making.
Someone, e-mail me a Gold Star, willya?
