A sinkhole has opened up on one of Prince Albert’s roads.

It’s located at the intersection of 2 Avenue West and 12 Street West, near the EA Rawlinson Centre.

Residents in the area reportedly experienced some water issues, however, they appear to be resolved.

The city of P.A. has confirmed that the sinkhole was caused by a water main break. City crews will officially start repair work on Monday.
