The City of West 麻豆精选 has set up self-serve sandbag stations. 

The freshet has created cause for concern and public works and emergency crews are reminding residents and visitors to be cautious around creeks and waterways. 

Sandbags can be collected on Hitchner Road between Old Boucherie and Hoffman roads, on Capri Road near Bartley Road, and Smith Creek Road at Copper Ridge Drive. 

Storm drain repairs are underway in parts of the city causing minor traffic delays. Motorists are asked to slow down in areas that crews are working.
