Orion media release - Progress to restore power continues - 4.30pm Thurs 12 Sept 2013

If you see a fallen power line, or a tree on a power line, please stay well clear and call us immediately on 0800 363 9898. Also, we appeal for people not to try and remove trees and branches from power lines. The lines may still be live. Please leave any works near electricity lines to our staff and contractors.

Unless there are significant developments overnight, our next update will be at 6.30am.

Attached is a map showing our network separated into three areas and our expected timeframes for restoring power to those still without power in each of those areas. This is a guide only.
