VALLEY CITY, N.D. (AP) -- Valley City's Main Street is open again.
The street was closed in March after a sewer breakdown, dike work and other problems related to spring flooding. On Saturday, the barriers were removed.
Kelly Tabor, who runs the Broken Spoke Family Restaurant & Saloon, said business has suffered from the street closing.
Tabor said that after he helped move away the ``Road Closed' signs on Saturday, he was the first person to drive down the reopened Main Street.
Tabor said about 60 people with brooms -- including city commissioners -- swept the street and sidewalk after the signs and plastic sheets were removed.

He felt relief, and he said his business already is picking up.
