Rail construction will lead to a brief power outage on Tuesday.

CenterPoint Energy will interrupt electricity in Houston from 4:30 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. to accommodate construction of a light rail along the North Line.

The power outage will affect businesses and residences along Paschall, between North Main and Thomas. Areas near these intersections may be impacted also. All residents and businesses have been notified, and posted times and expected duration are subject to change.

People are instructed to plan for the power outage in advance. CenterPoint's Gary Braxton is available by cell at 713-851-2997.
