Aging main at Eglinton, Mt. Pleasant breaks from vibration

A break in an old watermain flooded parts of Mt. Pleasant Rd. and Eglinton Ave. and stopped the flow of water to some homes in the area Friday morning. Water service was resumed later in the day. The agency known as Eglinton 2020 tweeted that it was arranging to provide water for household that are effected. It said the break was caused by vibration. Josh Matlow tweeted that the break was unacceptable. He said he contacted Metrolinx and Toronto water.  Resident Rowan Caister tweeted: “Well, someone hit the mother of all water mains. Mount Pleasant and Eglinton is flooded out.” Eglinton re-opens after watermain break due to LRT work
