Power Out For 700 In Moraga Tuesday; St. Mary’s Road Briefly Closed

SHARE
Orinda darkened after power lines brought down.

A downed power line cut off power for nearly 700 Moragans Tuesday and led to closure of St. Mary’s Road at the Moraga Library for about an hour as crews worked to restore power.

There is a heavy smell of smoke in the air but no active fire. St Mary’s was closed at Carter and Moraga Road but reopened to traffic in both directions at about 8:20 p.m. First responders briefly ordered library patrons indoors after adjacent power lines appeared in danger of falling but no one was reported injured during the incident.
