On Monday, September 14, 2020, between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, Halifax Water will be undertaking maintenance to the booster station pumps that provide water to customers in the Leiblin Park area (see attached map.) A small number of customers will lose water service during this work; those customers have been notified directly by Halifax Water.
Customers in this area may experience reduced water pressure and/or discoloured water during this maintenance work.
Customers who experience discoloured water should run the COLD water at one faucet for about 10 minutes. You should see the water clear. Do not use the hot water faucet since this will draw discoloured water into your hot water heater/tank, which could make the problem worse. If the water fails to clear after 10 minutes, wait for a few hours and again try running only the cold water. To learn more about discoloured water, visit www.halifaxwater.ca/discoloured-water.
Motorists should expect delays and use alternate routes. Motorists are also reminded that speed fines double in work zones.
We apologize for any inconvenience this necessary infrastructure improvement work may cause.
For the safety of work crews and residents, please observe social/physical distancing requirements (2 metres of separation).
