NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - Officials with the Nashville Electric Service (NES) are working to repair a reported outage in downtown Nashville, affecting about 50 commercial customers.

NES said the outage was due to equipment damage caused by a residential development contractor installing lighting for a residential development.

NES said that the area affected is in the Nashville Yards area, from 7th Avenue to 11th Avenue between Martin Luther King Boulevard and McGavock Street.

The restoration process could take several hours.

“We will provide further information as it becomes available,” NES said.
