Default Major Water Main Break in Bowness Area

I saw the pictures on Reddit last night. Just got the emergency alert saying water usage should be avoided at all costs, including showering.

On the evening of Wednesday, June 5 The City discovered an extensive water main break in the Bowness area. This is a significant break on one of the critical transmission lines (called a feeder main) that enables us to move water across the city.

It has caused water outages in Bowness and is impacting water pressure in several other areas, including the communities of Parkdale, West Hillhurst, Hillhurst and Scarboro.

A boil water advisory is in place for Bowness, along with mandatory outdoor water restrictions, voluntary indoor water restrictions, and there are traffic impacts to the area. More information is below.
