Bahamas Power and Light say
they’ve restored 83% of New Providence ’s power
and that they still expect full restoration by the end of this week. I did hear
an appeal from them earlier for home owners who have difficult access to their
properties to allow their linesmen to get through, so that they can restore
power to them. Apparently some residents’ gates are locked or they have dogs protecting
their homes.
Some friends of ours say that
they were advised by the former power company, BEC, some time ago when street
lights were installed in their street, to bring their electricity connection
forwards from the back of their property, which they did.
BPL also says that 65% power
has been restored to North and Central Andros .
