There are a number of power outages planned for Richmond this week

Two areas of Richmond will experience power outages this week as BC Hydro has scheduled repair and replacement work.

BC Hydro plans regular power outages to perform work on equipment or power lines that require them to be de-energized, according to its website.

“By planning the outage and doing the necessary work, our crews can prevent a potential unplanned emergency outage in the future, where a part of the system unexpectedly fails or malfunctions,” says BC Hydro's website.

Here are the power outages scheduled for this week:

April 28 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Planned work on BC Hydro equipment will affect less than five customers at:

  • 6231, 6251, 6240 and  6260 Spender Dr.

April 29 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Planned work on BC Hydro equipment will affect 37 customers at:

  • 11531 3rd Ave.
  • 11420 to 11540 4th Ave.
  • 3391 to 3531 Georgia St.
  • 3311 to 3511 Pleasant St.
