The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that Albro Lake, Oakfield and Government Wharf beaches have reopened for swimming.

Municipal staff regularly test the water quality at all supervised and four unsupervised municipal beaches during the summer months.

Tests last week showed high bacteria levels in the water, but follow-up tests now show the water is once again safe, as per Health Canada guidelines.
