The Philadelphia Water Department has been working on McCallum Street and Allens Lane for more than a week now, closing sizable sections of both roads. Department spokesperson Laura Copeland told the Local Tuesday that the work is to replace water mains in the area and that the work would last through March of 2013. Residents should expect no disruption of service, she said. If there is a need for turning service off, Copeland said residents would receive at least a day's notice. -- Pete Mazzaccaro
