Warnings posted at two area beaches

The Windsor Essex County Health Unit is warning people not to swim at two area public beaches after water testing showed elevated levels of E.coli bacteria.

Beachgoers should stay out of the water at Cedar Beach and Holiday Beach.

E.coli levels were low at the other six public beaches in Windsor-Essex.

The health unit tests water samples from each of the seven public beaches weekly, usually on Wednesdays, between June and September.
