Watermain Break Repair – Environmental Service – April 20, 2026 

The City of Timmins, Environmental Services Department wishes to advise the public of Watermain Break Repair within the following area:

Timmins North:

Melrose Blvd between Westmount Blvd to Victoria Ave (East side of the street)

Dieppe St between Westmount Blvd to Victoria Ave (West side of the street)

 Date and Time of Disruption:

April 20, 2026, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

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.

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