Heads up, Kanata North, on May 14 and 19, 2026, Hydro Ottawa will be installing underground infrastructure that will impact customers on Hansen Avenue and Vermeer Way. To complete this work safely, a planned power interruption is required.
You may notice an increased construction presence and traffic control measures, including lane reductions, to ensure the safety of residents and crews. Construction activities will occur on the City of Ottawa Road Right-of-Way – a legal right of access for Hydro Ottawa to install and maintain its electrical distribution system.
As mentioned above, two planned power outages will be required to proceed with this work. All impacted customers are contacted by phone, text or email – depending on the communication preferences indicated on their account – and informed by a written notice delivered to their door. The Hydro Ottawa team will work efficiently to minimize any inconvenience, however, please note that the outage may be rescheduled in the event of circumstances beyond our control.
