POWER RESTORED IN CITY’S WEST NEIGHBOURHOODS

For immediate release: April 11, 2014 - 6:00 pm
UT14-212


A 3:15 a.m. fire at a Saskatoon Light&Power wood pole caused a power outage in Pleasant Hill, Mount Royal and Meadow Green neighbourhoods this morning.  The power for these neighbourhoods was rerouted and power was restored around 4:30 a.m.  This pole will be scheduled for repair early next week, but no further outages are expected.

Around 10:30 a.m. this morning, the same neighbourhoods were affected by another power outage.  The cause of this second outage was trees contacting a power line.  The trees were trimmed and the power was restored at 1:00 p.m. this afternoon.

We want to thank everyone for their patience and cooperation during these outages.  Regular updates were provided through the Saskatoon Light & Power service alerts and at saskatoon.ca throughout the outage to keep customers informed.
