Bracebridge officials continue to monitor water levels over the Easter weekend

The team monitoring water levels in the Bracebridge area says the north and south branches of the Muskoka River and Lake Muskoka continue to rise slowly, while Black River water levels continue to fall. The town’s Emergency Control Group reminds residents to stay clear of open waters, creeks and rivers, while motorists are advised to heed road closed and warning signs. The Emergency Control Group adds they will continue to keep an eye on things throughout the holiday weekend, but they do not expect to release an update on Easter Monday unless there is a change in conditions.
