A water main break is forcing the City of Swift Current to close access to a street and one lane of traffic.

The break is blocking the southbound lane of Macoun Dr. from Pelletier Dr. to Robert St. W., as well as all of Robert St. W. to Tims Crescent.

A crew is on the scene at the moment.

For a small number of houses in the vicinity around the break, a precautionary drinking water advisory has been declared.
