Eighth Street South in Lakeside closed today

Kenora residents are warned of more construction work and delays in the Lakeside area today.

The City of Kenora says Titan Contractors will be completing water work on Seventh Avenue South and Eighth Street South today, closing Eighth Street South until 5 p.m.

Until then, residents are asked to detour through Ninth Street South and Sixth Avenue South.

Due to the water work, the city issued a precautionary boil water advisory for parts of Lakeside due to a negative pressure event associated with the work. The safety of drinking water at this time cannot be guaranteed on a number of properties. You can find the list HERE.

The City of Kenora thanks residents for their patience and cooperation.
