JPS working to restore power to smaller communities surrounded by larger areas that have access to electricity

The Jamaica Public Service (JPS) says it is now working to restore power to smaller communities which are surrounded by larger areas that have access to electricity.

This as the utility company follows a two-pronged approach to its power restoration efforts, following the passage of Hurricane Beryl.

It is now two weeks since the Category 4 hurricane ravaged the island and thousands of JPS customers are still without power.

Despite JPS’ progress, customers mounted roadblocks in at least two parishes yesterday to register their frustration over the delay in reconnection.

The residents are concerned that despite not living in areas largely impacted by the hurricane, they still live in darkness.

In response, JPS’ Director of Communications, Winsome Callum told IRIE FM News that strategies are being employed to address these areas, including smaller pockets of communities nationwide without power.

Ms. Callum warned citizens to refrain from attempting to connect their electricity independently.
