OVER 150 homes across Worcester are without power.

According to the National Grid's live power cuts map, power outages are affecting 182 homes across the WR2, WR4 and WR5 postcodes this morning (Thursday, October 10).

A further 25 homes in Evesham have also been affected.

A spokesperson for National Grid electricity distribution said: "This morning, a handful of localised power cuts have affected 182 properties in Worcester and 25 properties in Evesham.

"These are individual faults, and our engineers are currently on site and working at pace to resolve the issues. 

"We'd like to thank our customers for their patience, and remind them that they can check our website or call 105 for regular updates on our progress as we work to get them reconnected."

National Grid estimates that power problems will be resolved across all three postcodes between 11am and 3pm.

More than 1,100 homes across Worcester, Malvern and Pershore were left without power yesterday (Wednesday, October 9) because of damage and faults across National Grid's network, though power was restored to all but one property within an hour.
