Adilabad: A truck carrying empty LPG cylinders collided with a van resulting in bursting of a drinking water pipeline forcing vehicular traffic to come to a halt for a while on national highway 44 at Mavala bypass on the outskirts of the town on Friday.
The LPG cylinder laden truck dashed against a van coming from the opposite direction on the bypass. Cylinders fell down from the vehicle and the truck then hit the pipeline causing the burst of it. As a result, water gushed out of the pipe for about an hour and traffic on the national highway came to a grinding halt causing inconvenience to motorists.
