Emergency Watermain Valve Replacement – Environmental Services – January 26, 2026 

The City of Timmins Environmental Services Department wishes to advise the public of emergency watermain valve replacement which will close the roads within the following area:

Timmins North:
Road Closure: Theriault Blvd from Vimy Ave to Airport Rd – Local Traffic will still be able to access the Sportsplex and Schools from Vimy Ave
Road Closure: Jubilee Ave from University St to Westmount Blvd

Date & Time of Disruption:
January 26, 2026 – 8:00AM to 8:00PM

Homeowners and businesses within the notification area may experience short-term loss in water pressure or experience brown or rust-coloured water during the disruption. It is recommended not to drink or wash laundry with the discoloured water. While it is not harmful to your health, it can stain laundry. Should this occur, it is advised to turn off your tap for 10-20 minutes in order to allow the crew to finish. Once the work is completed, 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 water colour has returned to normal.

Road Information: Road closure within this area might last longer than the estimated date and time of disruption once the repair is made.

Environmental Service Department would like to thank residents for their patience and cooperation during this emergency work.
