From Sunday, January 29 at 7 p.m. until Monday, January 30 at 7 a.m., BC Hydro will be doing necessary upgrades to their downtown substation.

Because of this work, Granville Station on the Expo Line will be affected.

There will be a brief hydro outage (less than 10 seconds) when all the escalators will stop and emergency lighting will be activated.

There will be staff on hand, working with BC Hydro, to aid with the safe shutdown of the escalators and elevators.

When the outage begins, Granville Station will be borrowing some power from Burrard Station.

During this nighttime work, three escalators and two elevators will be out of service and there will be reduced lighting.
