Website with powerful outage mapping system launched
With the click of a mouse and zoom-in and zoom-out capability, people can now pinpoint with a greater degree of accuracy the location of an outage; the number of customers affected; and the current estimated time of power restoration.

To access the new mapping system, click-on the Power Outages Map on the Hydro One homepage at http://www.hydroone.com.
