OGDEN, Utah — Officials said 911 services in the Cache County area have been restored after they were unavailable for a brief time after a telecommunications line was cut in Ogden on Wednesday afternoon.
The 911 dispatch center reported the issue just after 12:30 p.m., sharing that some services in Cache County would be disrupted. Only landline users were affected by the outage, not cell phone or Voice over Internet Protocol users.
Those who needed to reach out to 911 and were not connected were told to call the secondary line at 435-753-7555.
Service was restored just after 3 p.m. and all 911 calls are working.
The outage comes on the same day that classes were canceled at several Weber School District Schools after an on-site contractor mistakenly bored through multiple communication conduits.
