GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – UPDATE: Power was restored shortly after 2:30 p.m. to all Wisconsin Public Service (WPS) customers affected by an issue with transmission equipment owned by American Transmission Company in Green Bay earlier this afternoon. The issue impacted WPS’ electric distribution system, causing outages for some WPS customers for approximately 45 minutes.
***
A large power outage is affecting much of Green Bay’s west side, as well as Howard, Ashwaubenon and Hobart.
Police are asking people to avoid traveling if at all possible, as traffic lights are out and the more traffic congestion in the area will create hazardous driving conditions. The Green Bay Police Department is reminding all motorists that inoperable traffic lights at intersections are to be treated the same as a 4-way stop sign.
Here is the data from WPS:
Green Bay 24% without power
Howard 60% without power
Ashwaubenon 22% without power
Hobart 20% without power
