The planned outage is scheduled from 6-7 a.m. Electricity will be turned off, so crews can safely finish installing and energizing underground power lines for Holding Village and the new traffic signal at the intersection of South Franklin and Dr. Calvin Jones Highway/NC 98 Bypass.

Among the customers to be impacted by the outage will be Creekside Apartments, Deacons Ridge Subdivision, Franklin Street Apartments, and Village Drug Store.
