A street in northeast Edmonton is expected to remain closed until further notice following a water main break on Sunday.
Shortly after 8:30 p.m. Sunday, 82 Street was shut down in both directions between 118 Avenue and 122 Avenue.
Originally, police anticipated the road would remain closed into Monday morning’s commute. But on Monday afternoon, the City of Edmonton said 82 Street remained closed between 118 Avenue and 120 Avenue. At that time, the street was expected to be closed until 6 p.m. Tuesday.
On Thursday morning, amid a rainfall warning in Edmonton, EPCOR said the street remained closed between 119 Avenue and 120 Avenue.
“Site restoration work will continue once weather permits,” EPCOR said in a tweet early Thursday morning.
It’s not known when the road will reopen, but EPCOR said it would update the progress on its Twitter account.
The city asks drivers to detour using 97 Street or Wayne Gretzky Drive.
