Crews working on a construction project at the corner of Elgin and Elm streets in the downtown core ruptured a water main this morning.
In a news release, the city said there is a possibility some area water users could see discolored water and experience low-water pressure in the area.
If you notice discoloured water following flushing operations, let the cold water tap closest to your water meter run slowly for several minutes until the water is clear of any sediments in your water pipes. If water is cloudy, you can let the cold water tap at the highest point in your home run slowly for a few minutes to release trapped air bubbles that cause cloudiness.
Prolonged episodes of discoloured water and/or low water pressure should be reported to the City of Greater Sudbury by dialing 3-1-1.
