Midlothian Boulevard east-bound, between Shirley Road and Lemoyne Boulevard has been closed due to a sinkhole. The Youngstown Department of Public Works says it was caused by a 30 inch sanitary sewer and manhole collapse.

Repairs will begin August 8.

The timeline on the repair will be released following excavation, according to the department.

City officials advise drivers to follow the posted detour: I-680 South to US Route 224 to I-680 North to Midlothian.
