SYSTEM OUTAGE ALERT

The DubLink fiber system was cut by a contractor working at Village Parkway and Tuller road this afternoon. There is large group of workers from Fishel on-site at the cut working to make repairs, but they anticipate this work could continue well into the evening.

 

This cut currently affects the consoles at Worthington PD and the link to the Huntley Road Tower - both of which are off line until the cut is repaired. Users can continue to stay on COIRS talk-groups as the Delaware sites along with the Hard Road and Avery Road sites are up an functional.
