Due to rapidly rising water levels along rivers and deteriorating conditions throughout the municipality, residents are strongly advised not to travel on any municipal roads unless absolutely necessary. Conditions are changing quickly, and many roads may be unsafe or impassable. Please be aware that not all road closures and hazards have been barricaded, as some affected locations cannot be safely accessed by crews at this time.
Traveling on municipal roads may place you at significant risk. Water can conceal washouts, road damage, and other dangerous conditions. Residents are urged to remain in a safe location and avoid unnecessary movement until conditions improve.
Public Works crews continue to monitor the situation around the clock and are responding to emergencies and reports as they are received. However, ongoing flooding and inaccessible areas may delay response times.
If you choose to voluntarily evacuate for your safety, please contact the Municipality at 204-638-4531 to register your evacuation location and contact information. In an emergency, call 911 immediately. For municipal emergency concerns related to flooding or infrastructure, contact the RM of Dauphin Emergency Line at 204-701-8523.
Residents are strongly encouraged to monitor local radio stations, media outlets, the RM website, and the RM of Dauphin Facebook page for updates. Conditions remain serious and may worsen with little notice.
