Hauraki power out for over 12 hours

Hauraki residents and the BP on Lake Rd lost power for more than 12 hours on Friday, 14 April. Vector workers coned off a section of the main road to fix a transformer fault, near the Northboro Rd corner.

Power was lost shortly after 9am and restored before 11pm for homes in the immediate vicinity of the fault.

Vector told an affected Flagstaff worker that no-one had reported the fault until after 1pm, however, several affected householders said they had done so soon after losing power.
