DUBLIN, CA —Power is restored to all but 13 of the 1,315 customers in Dublin who lost power after power lines fell on Dublin Canyon Road between Foothill and Schaefer Ranch roads Wednesday morning. At 7 a.m., the California Highway Patrol tweeted that that portion of Dublin Canyon Road will be closed 6-8 hours as crews replace the poles and lines. As of 1:24 p.m., there is no update.

Power was out along that section of Dublin Canyon Road due to "equipment failure," according to PG&E. The outage started at 4:49 a.m.

In an unrelated incident, Dublin City Hall lost power Tuesday, and closed for the remainder of the day. The city website was also down for a period of time, but restored later Tuesday. Full power was restored by Wednesday morning, according to Bay City News.
