Heavy Rainfall Forecasted – Clearing Storm Drains, Catch Basins, and Driveway Culverts
Halifax Water is advising residents that the heavy rainfall forecasted for Tuesday will create surface-level run-off. This increases the risk of localized flooding, especially if storm drains and catch basins are blocked with debris.
Halifax Water is encouraging residents to check their storm drains/catch basins to ensure they are clear. If you see they are blocked, we ask that customers clear them if they are able, and it is safe to do so.
