Sudbury Hydro

By Angela Gemmill

Equipment failure at the Gemmell Street Substation left 1,500 Sudbury Hydro customers without power for about two hours Wednesday afternoon.

Most of the affected homes were in New Sudbury, along Westmount Ave, Gemmell St, Hawthorne St and Falconbridge Road.

Crews were working on repairing the faulty equipment.

The electricity was back on around 4:30pm.
