2:23 PM: Avoid Fauntleroy Way near the south end of Lincoln Park – a downed wire has led to the street being blocked off. Updates as we get them.

2:35 PM: Here’s a live view of the scene, looking south down Fauntleroy:

For now, you can only reach the ferry dock from the south, until this is cleared.

2:48 PM: As the live image above shows, the road’s open again.

Again with wires down?! I hear people talk badly about infrastructure and other states but it seems like every week we have a wires down call regardless of good or bad weather

  In this case it may have been a case of a truck snagging a line. Haven’t confirmed that yet so didn’t include it above.

  Perhaps you’re aware of a bridge that has been out for nearly two years?

    Bridge? which one is out?

When the fire engine arrived it appeared that the tall construction truck stopped on Fauntleroy near the Lincoln Park south lot, just in front of all the sagging and downed power lines, had a torn metal structure on top that may have contributed.

Sorry, comment time is over.
