DRAMATIC footage filmed on Great Horton Road shows a fountain of water flowing into the air from a burst water main.
Drivers faced delays earlier this afternoon but at least their car was squeaky clean thanks to the free shower.
The Bradford Times, a Facebook page, urged locals to avoid the area while repairs got underway.
The water has since stopped flooding out into the road but temporary traffic signals are still in place due to ongoing gas main work.
