mattymoo   10 #4 Posted August 8, 2006 Power was out in B&Q, McDonalds and Morrisons at the Barracks today for about an hour and a half, as was all the traffic lights at the junction leading onto Penistone Rd!  Was a joy listening to all the musical horns Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
lalaland   10 #5 Posted August 9, 2006 There was a problem with a sub station yesterday (a few of them had problems in different areas of Sheffield and Barnsley resulting in similar problems).  A lot of the offices, McDonalds, the petrol station etc. all lost power, but Sheffield Insulations onwards all had power.  The traffic lights suffered as a result of this which meant the usual 'everyone charge' route of getting through instead of taking turns and clearing traffic and a few people appeared to get free petrol at the petrol station when the power went (my mate reckons he saw this, I wasn't there so not sure).  Bit strange that several sub stations go at the same time. It all appears to be resolve now anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
