Power Cut?

Anyone else have a power cut in Acton today? I'm in Park Royal and there is no power for anyone here.

All OK here in West Acton.

I just realised, anyone who has a power cut wouldn't be able to use a computer to log on here.

Update from Southern Electric "9 sub stations in Acton & Park Royal are currently off line (1 of which is Allan Way) while they look for the high voltage fault.  Should be another update in 2-3 hours.For information call: 08000727282Traffic lights are out at Gypsy Corner, if this continues they normally stop traffic from Horn Lane crossing and divert them up the Western Avenue to Hanger Lane to turn round.

Allan Way sub station back up and running, hopefully everyone is back on now?

No power here, all staff have been sent home and a generator is being supplied today so we'll be back up and running tomorrow. Apparently it's a gas explosion or something that has caused this.

According to TFL the Gypsy Corner lights are still out, although I had power back before 12 via the same supply. What is the situation now? (On my way home soon).

Power came back at my house this morning, and I went round turning things back on and resetting clocks before I left. On return I found that power had remained on since this morning, yet according to the TFL website the traffic lights at Gypsy Corner which are fed from the same cable have apparently been off all afternoon, causing traffic chaos.
