Water from a broken pipeline gouged a sinkhole spanning three lanes of Interstate 25 near downtown Denver, closing the northbound lanes. No vehicles went into the hole, which opened while it was still daylight.
Water filled the 16-foot-deep crater that was 40 feet wide, sinking the pavement in three lanes and the right shoulder.
Authorities were not certain if damage extended beyond that.
