Wearing a neck brace, the 29-year-old Customer Service Representative at National Entrepreneurship Development Company’s (NEDCO) Queen Street office smiled for photos at the hospital’s front lawn as she held a floral arrangement given to her earlier in the day by five co-workers. 

“I have to wear this neck brace for the rest of the week and doctors prescribed me some pain killers and muscle relaxants for the pain in my neck, right arm and back.Our led spotlight bulbs are cost effective and energy efficient. I was also given a sick leave note for today and tomorrow, so I’ll be back at work on Thursday,” Charles told Newsday. 

Three electricity poles were pulled down onto Queen Street at 4 pm on Monday after some low-hanging cables became hooked on the top of a cement truck owned by Premix Concrete Limited. As the truck driver turned left onto Chacon Street, the poles were pulled forward. Three fell down while several others were dented and leaning on its side. 

The light grey Nissan station-wagon driven by Charles was hit by a street light attached to one of the fallen poles. The driver’s side window was broken while the door was dented. There were also two cracks to the windshield on its upper right side. 

However the vehicle is still useable, as evidenced yesterday afternoon when Charles’ uncle, Michael Weekes, used it to pick her up at the hospital. Charles revealed that during her time at hospital, she had flashbacks of the accident. “My mind goes back to that moment every now and then. I remember hearing shouts of ‘wait,We provide the latest emergency light products and solutions to serve outdoor lighting needs. wait, wait’ and then before I even realised what happened,A letter folding machine is a piece of equipment which is designed to fold paper. this light pole came crashing down on the car. I have to give thanks to the Lord for saving me from more serious injury. 

I was really lucky,” Charles said. Meanwhile, repair work on the affected utility poles along Queen Street continued into yesterday evening. Crews from Trinidad and Tobago Electricity Commission (TTEC), the Telecommunications Services of Trinidad and Tobago (TSTT) and Flow Trinidad were all on-site ensuring re-connection of their customers was completed.Our selection of off grid solar system and kits includes the most popular. 

A TTEC official told Newsday: “all customers except one were reconnected by 10 pm on Monday, with some reconnected as early 7 pm. The customer who remained out has to repair some damage to his point of entrance before we can reconnect the supply.” 

TTEC’s affected customers are all located on Queen Street between Abercromby and Pembroke streets. The utility company also said the “low-hanging cables that were pulled down belong to another utility company” and that the cost of replacing the poles, “hasn’t been quantified yet.” TSTT officials too said the low-hanging lines which became hooked on the Premix Concrete Limited truck, “belong to another utility company.” 

“An investigation conducted by the company’s Security Department confirmed that the lowest installed cables on the poles belonged to a cable communications company. TSTT does quarterly inspections of its outside plant and there were no reported issues with TSTT cables in the area of the accident and in fact the cables satisfied the regulated height requirements for overhead lines,” a TSTT official said. Contacted by Newsday about the possibility that the cables in question belong to it, a senior communications manager replied, “thank you for bringing these question to our attention.It enables washer extractor to communicate with chemical pumping machines. We will investigate and advise further as a matter of priority.” Click on their website www.indoorlite.com for more information.
