EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) - All lanes of Riverside Drive are now closed in both directions at Chestnut Street.

City officials say, because of the high river levels, water is still flowing under the road and repair work has stopped, likely until this coming Sunday.

Drivers should use Second Street as a detour.

The westbound lanes have been closed since a sinkhole formed in late February.

One eastbound lane was shutdown last week.

All lanes are now closed.
