Altona Public Works crews are working repairing a water main break that occurred Tuesday morning along 2nd Street Southeast.

“We didn't lose a lot of water, and I think we got it isolated in record time for a split that size,” explains Altona Public Works Manager Clint Derksen. “There is a little bit of water there, but the guys are moving that so it doesn't become a hazard for anybody.”

Residents that are South of 4th Avenue on 2nd Street Southeast will be without water until later tonight, and Derksen estimates there are about ten homes impacted by the break.

The remainder of the town is back to having full water pressure at this time.

For those still experiencing water pressure issues, please contact the Town of Altona office at 204-324-6468.
