Cranbrook, BC (September 23, 2021) – A new connection tie-in to the Pressure Reducing Station that feeds water to the Wildstone and River’s Crossing (former Shadow Mountain) areas is scheduled to occur September 27th to October 1st, with the entire project lasting until October 29.

Water service will be shut down Tuesday September 28th at 8:00am and is expected to be off most of the day. Every effort will be made to restore water service as quickly as possible.  Once service is restored, residents are asked to run their cold water taps for 15 minutes or longer if the water is not clear.

Residents to be impacted by this work are asked to please keep a supply of water available in your homes to allow for drinking, cooking, doing dishes, and flushing toilets for at least one day.

The works will be happening in the entrance roadway to the Wildstone development on Wildstone Drive. The contractor will be constructing a short detour route around the project site, which will be open to single-lane traffic for the duration of the project.

The City asks for patience and understanding as this important repair is completed. Please keep clear of the project site to allow our staff and equipment to work safely.

Updates will be provided as needed throughout the project on our Facebook and Twitter pages at www.facebook.com/cityofcranbrook or www.twitter.com/cityofcranbrook.
