Ryan Kidd, the city's deputy director of water services, says the recent break happened in a smaller, 250-millimetre cast iron distribution line that serves the immediate area, which is near Bowness Road and 51 Street North West. A massive water main supplying 60 per cent of the drinking water for Calgary ruptured June 5, and Calgarians were urged to cut their indoor water use by 25 per cent amid a state of local emergency.Crews later found more breaks in the feeder main that needed repairs, and it wasn't until late last month that restrictions on outdoor watering with potable water were finally lifted.
