no water from main after fixing toilet drip?

before fixing a leak at shutoff at toilet. I turned off the main street water shut off in my yard. after the fix I turned the main back on but got nothing into the house. I left a faucet on in the bathroom. Is there an air block somewhere? I have turned the main off several times over the years and never had this problem. Anything else I can do before calling out the water dept.?

I found the solution! It was a dual backwash valve left open just a bit. I opened it all the way and it worked. It was on the other side of the house. Thanks for your help.
