BANFF – Banff Avenue has reopened in both directions following a water main break earlier Thursday (Jan. 11).

Town of Banff officials say sand is being deployed and crews continue to remove ice – so drive with extreme caution around workers and on the icy roadway.

"The Fire Department is delivering water bottles to residents in Alpine Apartments, which has no water service while crews excavate and repair the water mains," states the Town's notice.

"We will have an estimated time of returning water service later this afternoon, when crews see the extent of repairs needed."

Moose Street remains closed to vehicles and pedestrians between Banff Avenue and Beaver Street.
