Power has been restored late Saturday evening after a large outage was reported in sections of the City of Poughkeepsie Central Business District, Waterfront District and the Southside Saturday evening, according to Central Hudson.

Approximately 2,600 customers were affected by the outage, said Central Hudson, adding that crews worked throughout the city to restore power as soon as possible.

If you see a downed power line or other potentially hazardous condition involving electrical equipment, stay at least 30 feet away from the wires and anything they are in contact with, Central Hudson said. The ground around downed or low hanging power lines, as well as surrounding objects such as fences, could be energized.

If the event of an emergency, please dial 9-1-1. For all non-emergency situations, please call the CPPD Front Desk at (845) 451-4000.
