West Goose Lake has dropped slightly. East Goose Lake remains stable.
St. Vlad's has dropped approximately four inches since yesterday.
Wastewater lift stations continue to operate under significant strain. Residents are still asked to reduce water consumption wherever possible and ensure sump pumps discharge outside, not into the sanitary sewer system.
Rural Operations
The Makaroff / Deepdale bypass has now been completed and is open to local traffic only. The road remains soft in several areas. Drive with extreme caution and reduce your speed.
The Merridale washout has been repaired; however, the bridge remains under water and is still closed.
Public Works continues maintaining water discharge systems and restoring access to isolated areas as conditions allow.
