The City of Humboldt is currently digging to repair a watermain break on one of the busiest roads in the community.

On Thursday, September 21, the break occurred, with extra time being taken to draw out a detour for motorists. Crews began working on the repair on Monday morning.

The original watermain break is at the intersection of Glenn Hall Drive and 7th Avenue.

Once that is repaired, two more leaks will be looked at by the city. Another significant one is along Glenn Hall Drive and Main Street, with a second leak found at Main Street and 2nd Avenue.

A drinking water advisory is in place for Humboldt Public School and the Daycare Centre, as well as one household in the vicinity.
