Underground pipe bursts and turns Yishun street into impromptu water feature

Flooding broke out in Yishun after an underground water pipe leaked, sending water surging across the affected area and leaving residents to navigate what briefly resembled a neighbourhood canal. The leak, which originated beneath the road surface, caused visible pooling and disruption before authorities were alerted. PUB confirmed it is investigating the incident, with crews dispatched to assess and repair the damaged infrastructure. No injuries were reported, though the sudden appearance of standing water in a residential Yishun street drew the usual mix of alarm and resigned familiarity from locals.
