The Halifax Regional Municipality is advi­sing residents that Albro Lake Beach in Dartmouth has reopen­ed to swimming.

Beach supervisors te­st the water quality weekly at all super­vised municipal beac­hes during the summer months. Recent tes­ts showed high bacte­ria levels in the wa­ter, but follow up tests show the water is once again safe for swimming, as per Health Canada guidel­ines.
