The Jamaica Public Service Company, JPS says its teams will be working today to restore electricity to most of the customers who are still affected by outages caused by Tropical Storm Grace.

Restoration is more than 95% completed in most parishes, but some communities have remained without service because of badly damaged infrastructure and access challenges.

Corporate Communications Director at JPS Winsome Callum, says while the teams continue to work on getting supply to the larger areas and communities that are still out.

She says however, that the teams will also be turning their attention to the small pockets and individual customers.

Ms. Callum also reminded members of the public to stay away from fallen poles and power lines, as the lines may still be energised and could cause electrocution or electrical burns.
