majority of customers to be restored this evening
crews have made considerable progress overnight restoring customers impacted by hurricane barry. as of 9 a.m. tuesday, less than 5,200 customers remain without power. the company expects to restore service to the majority of customers who can accept it by tonight, with those in the hardest hit areas in the greater baton rouge area, as well as lafourche and terrebonne parishes, estimated to be restored by tomorrow. as we continue to restore service, we will reassign crews to focus on the areas still without power.
a storm team of more than 4,000 has restored more than 325,590 customer outages as of tuesday morning.
accessibility issues have posed the greatest challenges for customers in the greater baton rouge area where the concentration of damage has been in residential backyards or alleyways. in lafourche and terrebonne parishes, crews have completed damage assessments and will continue working to restore power as quickly and safely as possible.
if you don’t see us working near you, keep in mind that we may be working on another part of the system that you can’t see but that is needed to get the lights back on.
