Rossmore/Fenwood Gardens drinking water service interruption Thursday

A full system-wide service interruption for all customers connected to the Rossmore/Fenwood Gardens drinking water system is to take place Thursday, Feb. 25 between 8 am and 6 pm.

The Water and Wastewater Department will be conducting planned repairs due to a watermain leak at the Rossmore metering chamber located at the intersection of Reddick and Ridley Streets in Rossmore.

During an exploratory excavation on Friday, Feb. 19, staff identified a watermain leak on the main supply line providing water from the Belleville Drinking water system to the Rossmore/Fenwood Gardens drinking water system. A full system service interruption is required to repair this leak.

When water service is restored, coloured water and air in plumbing may be present. Customers are encouraged to flush their water lines at the cold water tap nearest to the water meter once work is complete.
