Construction Workers Cut Cable, Delaying Flights at Major US Airports

Why it matters locally: Hoosiers traveling through major US airports could have experienced delays, and those with connecting flights through affected hubs may have faced disruptions.

Flights at multiple major United States airports experienced delays today after construction workers severed a cable. Pete Buttigieg, the US Transportation Secretary, confirmed the incident and announced that technicians had repaired the cable. Following the repair, airports began resuming normal operations, according to Buttigieg's statement.
