ST. PAUL, Minn. -- Authorities are diverting traffic after a sewer sinkhole damaged a roadway Friday night.

The sinkhole collapsed portions of Raymond Ave. between Hampden and Manvel streets.  City crews have set up a detour using the neighborhood streets west of Raymond.

Officials say they will re-route weekday traffic using Energy Park Drive, Highway 280 and Territorial Road starting Monday morning.

According to officials, the sewer line will be repaired once the damage has been evaluated.
