Water Main Work | Inverness Shean Trail | July 7, 2026

The Municipality of Inverness County advises residents of Inverness that crews will perform water line maintenance in Inverness on Tuesday, July 7. The water line is located on the Inverness Shean section of the Celtic Shores Coastal Trail starting at Central Avenue and heading east towards the Deepdale Trestle. This section of the trail is closed until work is complete.

While water service is not expected to be interrupted, users of the Inverness Water System are asked to voluntarily conserve water while work is underway to protect reservoir levels.

Once maintenance is complete, normal water use may resume. Residents can help reduce water consumption by:
• Taking shorter showers and turning off taps when brushing teeth or washing dishes.
• Running dishwashers and washing machines only with full loads.
• Avoiding non-essential outdoor water use, such as watering lawns or washing driveways.

The Municipality thanks residents for their cooperation and apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.
