Canatara Washrooms Operational Again

Washroom facilities at Sarnia's Canatara Park are fully operational again.

Two of the buildings had to be closed for a few days after sewage pumps failed over the weekend and had to be replaced.

Sarnia Parks and Recreation Director Rob Harwood says it was due to high volumes at the Canada Day parade Saturday.

"We had electrical issues that came up," says Harwood. "Since that time we had the electricians come in and new contactors were installed. Everything is back up and running and we should be fine from this day forward."

Harwood says city engineering staff have inspected the other three washrooms and there's no indication of any problems.

He says the cost to replace the pumps was minimal.
