On August 26, 2024, Hydro Ottawa will be replacing electrical equipment that will impact customers located on Porter Street. To undertake this work safely, a planned power interruption will be required.

We recognize that construction and power outages can be disruptive. Please be assured that the scheduling of this power outage has been reviewed and will move forward with our customers’ best interest in mind.

You may notice increased construction presence throughout the day. Traffic control and lane reductions will be implemented to ensure that roads and sidewalks remain safe for residents and staff. Construction activities will take place on the City of Ottawa Road Right-of-Way – a legal right of access for Hydro Ottawa to install and maintain its electrical distribution system.

As mentioned above, a planned power outage is required as a result of this work. All affected customers are contacted by phone, text or email – depending on the communication preferences indicated on their account. In the case of circumstances beyond our control, the outage may be rescheduled. Our qualified staff and contractors will conduct this work safely and efficiently, ensuring minimal inconvenience.
