Water Disruption, June 11th 2025: Skinners Road
The Town of Portugal Cove–St. Philip’s will be performing mandatory maintenance required by the Regional Water Supply on the Skinners Road water tower on Wednesday, June 11, 2025. As a result, a water outage will occur for residents of Skinners Road only, from 9:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. This work is scheduled to begin after the morning commute to avoid any traffic disruptions. When water service resumes, you may notice air in your lines or cloudy/discoloured water. If so, please run your cold water tap until the water runs clear.
To prepare for the outage:
- Keep bottled water on hand for drinking
- Fill bathtubs with water for flushing toilets and general household use
