Update: Power restored on the Plainfield Primary Circuit. Cause: one very determined squirrel. Signals and parks in the area are coming back online.

Happy Pride Month, GR!

Power has been restored city‑wide. Repairs at the Coldbrook & Monroe substation are complete, and all street lights/traffic signals are back online.
Cause: one very curious raccoon who picked the wrong piece of equipment to explore.

Street lights and traffic signals across the city are out due to a large-scale power outage. City of Grand Rapids crews are working to repair the outage. Restoration time is unknown at this time. Treat all intersections as four-way stops.
