Emergency services were affected Saturday morning in the Lower Mainland.
Metro Vancouver’s emergency service dispatch service, which is operated by E-Comm, was experiencing issues.
An E-Comm spokesperson told Global News an “unplanned outage” began around 6 a.m., which led to wait times being affected.
The emergency dispatch services are now operating normally, according to E-Comm.
