Twin Rivers pipe break downtown Edmundston

Oct 25, 2024

A pipe break at Twin Rivers early this morning means that de l'École-Cormier Street will be temporarily closed for repairs.

The pipe is used to transport pulp water from the Madawaska mill to the Edmundston mill. This white water is not dangerous to humans.

Nearby homes, as well as the building housing the police station and the Haut-Saint-Jean regional library, are currently being inspected.

Repair work on the pipe will take place during the day.

The City of Edmundston thanks you for your cooperation in following the detours indicated.
