Citizens Energy Group estimates the intersection of Ohio and Pennsylvania streets in downtown Indianapolis will reopen on Sunday.

Citizens says crews are working around the clock to make repairs to a more than 100-year-old sewer line that collapsed 15 feet beneath the surface causing a large sinkhole to develop under the intersection on July 4.

Completing the repair of the 24-inch diameter sewer line has been complicated by the need to protect other utility lines located both above and below the collapsed sewer.
