Traffic incident delays pipeline testing
Provincial officials are asking drivers to proceed with caution as they drive near the two pipelines coming into the city.
Duane McKay, the province’s commissioner of emergency management said, there was a delay Saturday, June 30 getting the 30 km South Saskatchewan River pipeline fully functional.
“Unfortunately, there was a traffic accident, or incident I would say, where part of the pipeline was impacted, and so the pumping operation had to stop until repairs were made,” he said.
He asked residents who used both Highway 55 and Highway 302 to be watchful and obey speed limits.
