Power cut and road closure
Sandringham Rd between St Lukes and Balmoral roads and Tranmere Rd remain closed after a vehicle hit a power pole around 4:30am.
Power lines are down across the road and there is a diversion at Shorewell St. People are urged to take extra caution around any electrical equipment that has been damaged. Network equipment should always be treated as live and if you see them damaged or down following incidents like this, keep away and call 0508 VECTOR.
The affected area is without power, with all affected customers expected to have it restored by midday or as soon as a new pole is put up. Edendale Primary School is also closed for the day due to having no power.
