Watermain Break at Mid Campus Drive - Monday, October 21, 2024

Oct. 21, 2024

Facilities and Asset Management has been made aware of a watermain break on Mid Campus Drive and University Avenue. Facilities Operations team is working diligently with the city to investigate and resolve the issue.

As a result of the watermain break, the Region of Waterloo will be shutting down service to the watermain effective immediately and for the duration of the day as part of the repair work.

As a result, there will be no water service to the following buildings:

• Savvas Chamberlain Music Building
• Dining Hall
• Athletic Complex
• Veritas Cafe
• Conrad Hall
• Macdonald House
• Willison Hall

Staff and faculty working in the affected buildings should consult with their supervisor for alternate work arrangements.

Please note that classes at the Savvas Chamberlain Music Building will continue as scheduled for today. As there is no water in the building, the washrooms will be out of service. Please use alternate washrooms located in the Arts Building or Lazaridis Hall.

The entrance to campus at University Avenue West (Mid Campus Drive) will be closed for the duration of the repair. Please use the entrance from King Street North (by the Science Building) to enter and exit the campus.   

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
