The Little Red River reserve is the latest First Nations community hit hard by flood waters.
The vice-chief of the community, Jeff Badger, says the bridge on the Montreal Lake side of the reserve has flooded over.
Residents are being forced to use back-roads or drive all the way over to highway #2 to get across.
Badger believes they may have to pack the bridge-road up with gravel and dirt to keep the water back.
He says they were on an evacuation-alert for a few days but that has since passed.
Meantime a spokesman with the Water Security Agency says a consultant has been hired to help the residents decide what action needs to be taken:
“Right now the Little Red River Reserve has a few areas of concern and what the Water Security Agency has done is hire an engineering consultant to go out there and identify those areas and help provide them with a solution and then they’d work with the federal government to get something done.”
Patrick Boyle adds five-and-a-half inches of water fell recently at Anglin Lake which is why the river has swollen so badly.
