Feeder Main Now Open

City of Calgary lifts water restrictions

Sep 23, 2024 | 10:35 AM

Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek says the Bearspaw South feeder main is now open and back in service for the Calgary region.

It means Calgary has lifted water restrictions that prevented people from using potable water for outdoor watering.

It was the second round of water rationing since the feeder main in northwest Calgary burst in early June.

There are still two smaller sections of pipe to repair, but the city says they won’t require city-wide water restrictions because they can be isolated while keeping the feeder main running.
