A sinkhole that formed in Saskatoon’s City Park neighbourhood swallowed the rear end of a truck on Thursday evening.
A sinkhole that formed in Saskatoon’s City Park neighbourhood swallowed the rear end of a truck on Thursday evening.
Photos shared online show the two rear wheels of a Ford Ranger truck submerged in the watery pit that opened following an apparent water main break at the intersection of Queen Street and 4th Avenue North.
Just after 9:30 p.m., the city reported a water outage in the area, with door hangers delivered to residents.
The city said an emergency water supply would be delivered soon, and it expected to have water back on within 24 to 48 hours.
“Affected addresses should review their yellow drinking water advisory door hanger. After repair, water should be boiled before consuming until green water advisory lifted door hanger arrives,” the city said in a service alert.
Residents were invited to use the shower facilities at the nearest leisure centre free of cost, the city says. They’ll need to show proof of address for access.
