Work is planned to address a "sanitary break" on King Street in Chapleau.
Mayor Michael Levesque says the break between Ash and Elm was an "unexpected occurrence", but emergency work is planned.
Mayor Levesque says the work is "from manhole to manhole", noting he believes it's the original pipe that needs to be replaced - he hopes the pipe will be replaced and that area repaved, with the start of work depending on weather.
