A POWER cut saw customers being turned away from a Bolton supermarket this afternoon.
Properties in Harwood were left without power at around 1.30pm today with 2,252 customers affected.
Morrisons, off Hough Fold Way, was forced to turn away customers during the power outage.
Electricity North West (ENW) reported that damage to its equipment due to a high voltage fault had caused the power cut.
Engineers were on the scene, and power was returned to the majority of customers within the hour.
Another 127 customers remain without power.
*UPDATE* #BL2 #BOLTON - Supplies have been restored to around 2125 properties. Engineers are still on site. Thanks for your patience - Soph
