Nanaimo has suspended construction on new water main infrastructure along Commercial Street .
The city was aware of the old mines in the area, and did some preliminary drilling at the site in 2023 to confirm their presence.
When crews set up to begin the water main work this year , they did further exploratory drilling which confirmed a potential risk of worker safety.
While contractors address the void problem, they've shifted infrastructure work to other locations.
