Update: PPL restoring power and preparing for next storm

 

SUNBURY –  Most PPL customers in the Valley who lost power from last week’s Nor’easter should have, or should be close to having their power restored. PPL says significant progress has been made restoring power in Central Pennsylvania.

 

PPL says  the remaining outages in the hardest-hit areas will predominantly be restored by 11 p.m. Wednesday. They say this storm will rank among the 10 worst to affect customers.

 

PPL has more than 1,700 workers doing power restoration, including line repair crews, tree crews and assessors. They say they are tracking the snow storm that is forecast to hit the state Tuesday night into Wednesday, and they will have their expanded snow staff in place when the storm arrives.

 

PennDOT says one road in Columbia County remains closed. That’s Tyson School Road between Middle Road and Bear Gap Road in Cleveland Township. In Snyder County, Route 235 between Three Rivers Road and Route 522 in Spring Township is now open. Mile Post Road also reopened over the weekend.
