Power failure at Esplanade Busport

It went off at around 10:00 AM today and as of 5:49 PM it is still not back on. This is a huge inconvenience because it means the escalators and lifts aren't working. Does anyone know what is causing such a long outage?

Re: Perth station underpass opens 6 months ahead of schedule

...I caught the train into the city for my work's Christmas lunch. Got off the Midland train, went down into the new tunnel and saw daylight again coming out of Raine Square.

Re: Train Lines - Disruptions - 2013

Does anyone have any more information on this one? I saw the same generic "technical issue" message (I wish they'd be more forthcoming!) but never heard any more about what it was until I saw the "everything is back to normal" message a while ago. Here is the email I got about i...

And don't forge...
