Heavy Rainfall Forecasted – Clearing Storm Drains, Catchbasins, and Driveway Culverts
Halifax Water is advising residents that the prolonged heavy rainfall that is expected this weekend could create surface-level run-off. This increases the risk of localized flooding, especially if storm drains and catchbasins are blocked with debris, such as fallen leaves.
To help avoid this, Halifax Water is encouraging residents to check their storm drains/catchbasins to ensure they are clear. If you see they are blocked, we ask that customers clear them if they are able, and it is safe to do so.
Customers with driveway culverts should ensure that nothing is blocking the flow of water.
