Power out after pole struck

More than 2,100 customers in Surrey are still without power after a truck crashed into a power pole just after 7 a.m. Wednesday morning.

The collision took at King George Boulevard and 104 Avenue and it's still unclear if anyone was injured in the crash.

However, traffic remains snarled as crews work to repair the damage and restore power.

"We're going to have to do a full pole replacement," spokesperson Kevin Aquino said.

Many users had their power restored once BC Hydro re-routed power but at least 2,100 other customers will have to wait until the power is replaced later today.
