UPDATE #2, 8:55 A.M.: Power has been restored to the 5,600-plus customers in Hope who lost power at about 6:45 a.m. this morning. The outage lasted about two hours.
However, there are still about 1,600 customers between Spuzzum and Lytton, and in Spences Bridge itself, who are still without power as of 8:55 a.m. Tuesday morning.
UPDATE #1, 8:35 A.M. TUESDAY: BC Hydro says crews are on their way to remediate the power outage. The cause of this morning’s power outage is transmission circuit failure.
Power is also out in most, if not all, of the Fraser Canyon, including Boston Bar, Spuzzum, Kanaka Bar, all of Lytton and most of Spences Bridge northeast of Lytton.
