Power isn’t expected to be restored to the area until 1 a.m. because two primary lines were downed resulting in more time being needed to fix the problem.
The affected area is between Kennedy and Gary streets and Broadway and Assiniboine Avenue.
Hydro doesn’t know what caused the lines to come down.
