Power Outage in Blanco, 23 April 2024 @09:45

A power outage affecting Crystal Street, Golden Valley, Robyn Crescent, and Marara Crescent has been reported to George Municipality. Repair teams are currently on-site busy with the repair work.

Repair efforts have been delayed due to the involvement of a civil contractor required for road crossing assistance before the repair work can proceed. The fault lies within the road reserve, necessitating the installation of sleeves and rerouting of the cable away from stormwater infrastructure.

Given the complexity of the situation, which involves multiple utility crossings including Fibre, Stormwater, sewerage, and electricity, the repair process is expected to be lengthy.

The municipality apologises for any inconvenience caused and assures residents that efforts are underway to resolve the issue promptly. Further updates will be provided as the situation progresses.
