[ARCHIVED] Neighborhood Street Light Outage

Street Light Outage

Neighborhood Street Light Outage

 

RO outages are series wired street lights that fail in groups, similar to old-style Christmas lights, which will typically leave an entire neighborhood without street lights. There are 15 RO areas located throughout Daly City. RO street light outages are commonly caused by a PG&E equipment failure or accidental damage. Due to the high voltage used in RO circuits, extensive coordination with PG&E is required whenever there is a failure. If PG&E equipment needs replacement, PG&E staff will need to schedule and perform the repairs.  

Once an RO outage is confirmed, the Police Department is notified. Patrols will be increased in affected neighborhoods, as time permits, during their regular routes.

There are currently two RO outages occurring in Daly City: 

RO 572 – John Daly Blvd. on the north, Park Plaza Dr. on the east, Southgate Ave. on the south and Lake Merced Blvd. on the west (the area surrounding Westlake Shopping Center).  See map here (PDF). At this time, there is a power delivery problem with PG&E's equipment. Public Works staff is working with PG&E to restore power to the street lights as soon as possible. For updated information over the next few weeks, please call Public Works Maintenance (650) 991-5559.

RO 577 – Neighborhood bordered by Northgate Ave. on the north, Lake Merced on the east, John Daly Blvd. on the south and Skyline Blvd. on the west.  See map here (PDF). There appears to be a problem with PG&E's equipment. PG&E has been notified.

Public Works staff appreciates the neighborhood’s understanding and patience while we continue to work with PG&E to restore power to the affected RO outage.
