Good news for Bell customers in Newmarket and Holland Landing, Ontario! Internet services are back online after a temporary disruption caused by road construction on Yonge Street. Here are the key details you need to know:

– Connectivity was lost on Tuesday due to fibre cables being cut during the construction.

– Patricia Garcia, Bell’s manager of public affairs, expressed gratitude for customers’ patience during this time.

The outage began on April 2, when a major fibre cable was severed during road construction north of Davis Drive. Jacqueline Michelis, Bell’s senior communications manager, confirmed ongoing repair efforts to address the issue promptly.

Bell’s repair teams have been working around the clock to resolve the situation. Service restoration is expected between 10 p.m. on Thursday and 2 a.m. on Friday.
