Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek says repairs are expected to take four weeks

Residents in Calgary and surrounding communities, fresh off having to conserve water for weeks due to a water main break, are soon going to have to do it all over again.

Work on those spots is to begin in about three weeks, on Aug. 28, and are expected to last one month. “I understand how much this impacts your life,” said Gondek, who emphasized that the preventative maintenance is about ensuring no more catastrophic water main breaks hit the city. Communities affected beyond city limits include Airdrie, Tsuut’ina Nation, Strathmore and Chestermere.
