Due to emergency repairs at the David Street Water Treatment plant, residents and businesses of the West End and South End of Sudbury may notice low water pressure on Tuesday, Dec. 20 from 1 p.m. to midnight.

To compensate for limited water supply, residents and businesses are asked to reduce water consumption whenever possible.

Residents who notice discoloured water once water pressure is restored are asked to run the cold water tap closest to their water meter for several minutes until water is clear of any sediment from water pipes. In the event of prolonged discoloration or low water pressure, residents are asked to call 3-1-1.
