Steam rising from a storm sewer drain on University Avenue in Charlottetown alerted crews Monday morning that repairs were needed to an underground hot water pipe.
Part of a lane of University Avenue, just south of Belvedere Avenue, was closed to traffic as repair crews from P.E.I. Energy Systems repaired a leak in an underground hot water heating pipe.
The need for repairs to the 30-year-old pipes is not unusual.(Brian Higgins/CBC)
The pipes carry water heated at the energy-from-waste plant on Riverside Drive to the University of Prince Edward Island and Charlottetown Mall, where it is used for heating.
