Power Outage Strikes Mishawaka: What You Need to Know
It's a frustrating situation when the lights go out, and that's exactly what happened in Mishawaka, Indiana, leaving parts of the city in the dark.
Reports came in around 10 a.m., alerting authorities to the widespread power failure. Mishawaka Utilities quickly confirmed a significant outage impacting the downtown and southwestern sections of the city. The affected area stretches south of the river, from Ironwood Drive on the west side to Merrifield Avenue on the east.
Good news for some: areas between Ironwood and Logan Street have already had their power restored. But here's where it gets crucial: Mishawaka Utilities is working tirelessly to get the remaining areas back online.
And this is the part most people miss: The Mishawaka Street Department is taking action by placing stop signs at every intersection where traffic signals are out of service. This means drivers must treat these intersections as four-way stops. Remember to proceed with caution and be extra vigilant!
