Can someone at @OC_Transpo please explain how the majority of the LRT line has been out of service for 90 minutes due to a "power outage" but according to @hydroottawa there isn't a trace of an outage anywhere near the train? 🤦♀️ #ottawaLRT #makeitmakesense https://t.co/f3HjJFnOAG

Hi, @RiverWardRiley Can you clarify with OCT the state of EV charger planning coordination with Hydro Ottawa? Ie Has land been allocated? Grid updates scheduled? Chargers supply chain investigated?
My issue is LRT planning was high level and never got into details or revisions.

@hydroottawa Your employee said it clearly, "the problem of delaying the reconnection request is this particular account." We'll need to know why and who's responsible for the damages we encounter?

As a snow bird I shut off everything in my condo while I am down south . But I still get a Hydro Ottawa bill every month for $52.00! No explanation from hydro Ottawa. Just taxes upon taxes for no usage. Seems like daylight robbery to me Z

@KEriksenV2 Been there. Lost internet for a week even though I had hydro. Learned Hydro Ottawa's Bell is on the same grid as the Electric Car powering station so I switched to Bell. Rogers went down again but Bell surprisingly hasn't. 🤫

@WilsonLo24 Again I asked, what are YOU doing to address this issue. Hydro Ottawa "willingness" is not something residents can rely on when the power drops and they lose access to a basic amenity, while other wards remain unaffected.

⚡️ @HydroOttawa crews have arrived in #BarrhavenEast. The outage within the red area in the previous tweet's map is spotty. Some homes have power, others don't. Traffic lights at Woodroffe/Fallowfield, Earl Mulligan, and Longfields are out.

@hydroottawa Tell us the reason for this most recent outage - and please and why is this part of the grid is so fragile? Every time there is a power outage, this same area goes down for extended periods.

@hydroottawa @WilsonLo24 It’s been 12 hrs without power. At one point, the outage map showed crew dispatched and crew on site. Guess that didn’t happen. It would have been nice to know the power wasn’t going to be restored anytime soon.

We're not out of the woods yet! If you are without power please report it by calling the @HydroOttawa Outage Line at 613-738-0188. You have to listen through a recorded message first, then you can report your info. This is the best way for them to track outages. 1/
