  • Bottled Water, Porta-Potties Rushed In After Victoria Airport Water Main Breaks
VICTORIA — Flights are running on time at Victoria International Airport, but water isn't running at all.
A water main ruptured at the airport, just north of the city, early Wednesday morning, cutting off water to the Air Terminal Building.
 
Food services, other than basic flight services, have been suspended until taps are flowing again.
 
Bottled water is being distributed to passengers, and portable washrooms have also been brought in.
 
The road directly in front of the main terminal is closed and all traffic is being directed through the short term parking lot while repairs to the broken pipe are underway.
