A leak on a primary water line was identified on Monday, November 14 north of Walmart within the Highway 10 right of way.
A bypass is being installed prior to repairs being carried out to ensure water transmission is maintained, and a detour route of Highway 10 onto 7 Avenue between 11 Street East and 19 Street East is in effect for the duration of the work.
“This line is critical infrastructure for the Town, and a prolonged break due to location and valving could result in a significant disruption to water distribution,” says Director of Infrastructure Services Dave Brett.
Repairs will begin once bypass construction is complete on Monday, December 5. It is anticipated this restoration work will take at least two weeks.
