Century Link aerial line torn down by sewer truck

Jamestown (CSi) – An  accident occurred Monday August 17 when a City of Jamestown sewer vacuum truck drove north on 2nd Ave NW (corner of 13th St) with its hydraulic boom not fully stored,  catching and tearing down a Century Link distribution telephone cable.

Minor damages to the CSi line above were reported, but it did not cause any outage for customers.

As of Tuesday afternoon, some residents in the area were still without telephone service as the line had not yet been fully repaired.
