There's that one, but perhaps even more relevant is that the city is about to begin construction on a parallel replacement of this troublesome Bearspaw South Feeder Main.

So basically: The pipe is failing before it was supposed to, got patched up the best they could in 2024, and a replacement is getting built.

If I was a gambling man, especially after this latest blowout, I would put a few bucks on another one before the replacement pipe is operational.
