Temporary water lines freezing results in no water service along Westwood Drive yesterday

Some residents along a stretch of Westwood Drive woke to not having water service Monday morning.

That’s because temporary water lines still in place because of ongoing water system work froze Sunday night when the temperatures dropped below zero.

If you live along the stretch of road from 311 to 352 Westwood Drive, you’re being asked to leave one tap in your home trickling overnight so as to help prevent further freeze-ups.

The latest water sample which was taken yesterday, has been sent to Winnipeg for testing.

Once the sample is tested and passes the test, the removal of the temporary water lines can begin.

The current estimate for removal is sometime between Wednesday and Friday of this week.
