Water has been temporarily shut off for an area in the North End of Halifax.

Halifax Water says due to a watermain break, near 5387 Glebe Street does not have water and that customers in the area may have discoloured water during this time.

They add that if this happens, run the cold water until it runs clear.

Crews are on scene in the area and there is stop and go traffic.
