The power is back on Monday morning in south Winnipeg after a hydro pole fire left a section of the city in the dark late Sunday evening.

Manitoba hydro crews were still working the problem on Marchand Road early Monday morning.

The power was reported out for at least an hour in St. Norbert, South St. Vital, Richmond West, Fort Richmond and out to Ile des Chenes.

Police were called to some intersections to control the traffic.

Power was restored to much of the area around 11:30 p.m..
