The police video indicate the suds coming up with significant pressure as jets shoot up around officers. As a result lanes on the intersection have been closed.
There is no known cause for the bubbles as yet, and drivers are advised to steer clear of the area as police investigate.
“It’s not actually a foam party so please avoid the intersection while we figure out the problem,” they said.
