Residents of Sidney, North Saanich and the Tseycum and Pauquachin First Nations are being warned they could experience reduced water pressure over the next several days as the Capital Regional District repairs the water main that serves the Saanich Peninsula.
Work crews are repairing a portion of the primary water transmission line on McTavish Road near East Saanich Road, due to a leak in the line, the CRD said Thursday.
Residents are being asked to reduce water use where possible over the next several days, until the repair is complete.
During the repair period, water distribution systems in the affected communities will rely on water stored in the McTavish, Dean Park and Cloake Hill reservoirs.
The CRD said it will use social media to provide residents with repair progress updates and when the repair is complete.
