The City of Timmins, Environmental Services & Public Utilities Department wishes to advise the public of a scheduled water infrastructure maintenance activities affecting the following area:

Timmins Area: School Rd, between Leonard Ave. and Riverside Dr.

Residents will experience a loss of pressure and may have some discolored water due to a test shutdown for the Connecting Link watermain re-lining project.

Date and Time of Disruption: August 5, 2026 from 10:00 PM to 1:00 AM.

All homes and businesses in the affected area could have colored water and/or lower water pressure.

Properties in the area may experience brown or rust-colored water during the schedule water maintenance. It is recommended not to drink or wash laundry with the discolored water. While it is not harmful to your health, it can stain laundry. Should this occur, it is advised to turn on the COLD water tap closest to the source (usually your laundry tub tap) and let it run for approximately 15-20 minutes or until the colour has returned to normal.

City staff would like to thank residents for their patience and cooperation during this work.
