Electrical Outage Wednesday to Clear Jacob’s Ladder Crash

As work continues to remove the overturned crane on Jacob’s Ladder along South Shore Road, St. John, it is expected that the roadway will be cleared by Thursday morning. 

To safely remove the large machinery, there will be a temporary electrical disruption on Wednesday, Feb. 18, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Pedestrians are asked to refrain from utilizing the pathway until all work has been completed. Motorists are advised to continue using Contant Hill as an alternate route until further notice.

The Department of Public Works appreciates the community’s continued patience and cooperation.
