More residents will be able to return home to some evacuated areas in Tantallon, as the city enters Phase 3 of lifting evacuations.

It will be for those whose homes are outside the area of significant impact.

The city will make the announcement at 2pm this afternoon, and it will be broadcasted on the municipalities YouTube page.

Although the city does say residents within the area of significant impact should be able to return home within the next 10 days.
