Prime Minister Mark Phillips last night visited the site where emergency repairs were being carried out by the Guyana Power and Light (GPL) on Aubrey Barker Road between Congress Drive and Kaikan Street in Georgetown.
The emergency works were necessary after four concrete power poles collapsed, a release from the Office of the Prime Minister said.
GPL has advised that due to the extent of the damage, affected customers will remain without power while corrective work is being carried out.
