UPDATE POWER OUTAGES: Estimated times of repairs of power outages
Issued George Municipality, 18 May 2022 at 20h15

Due to rain which is making repairing of power lines difficult and cutting back of vegetation in certain areas several high voltage faults may only be restored in several hours’ time or by tomorrow. We have also lost power again on the Airport line which affects several farms and in a portion of Herold’s Bay.

Estimated time of repair for the following areas are:

Portions of Wilderness Heights – 22h00.

Portion of Hoekwil – 24h30

Saasveld area – 22h30

Pinedew, most likely to be restored tomorrow.

Strong winds have caused several high and low voltage power outages in George area. Our electricians are working non-stop to get the power-up and running again. Zone 6 was restored in the meantime.

Please contact the after-hours emergency telephone number 044 801 6300 with any complaints.
