Manitoba Hydro crews have been working along Park Road in Steinbach.

Spokesperson Scott Powell says crews have been upgrading conductors along the road as part of the upgrade to the new Keating Distribution Supply Centre.

"The point of this is, this is new cable, it's heavier gauge, and the upgraded cable is going to allow us to transmit this power to the Keating DSC. [This will] allow us to provide better service to customers, particularly in the northern area of Steinbach, the industrial area up around the Clearspring Centre."

Powell asks drivers to use caution when passing crews.

"When you see the bucket trucks out we're really working hard to get that service improved and we appreciate everybody's patience and caution when they're passing our crews. Obviously, we want everyone to get home safe at the end of the day."

Powell adds crews should be done the work along Park Road in the next couple of days.
