Phone Service Disrupted

PHONE SERVICE DISRUPTED FOR APPROXIMATELY 100 CUSTOMERS; FIRE & POLICE STEP UP PATROLS FOR EMERGENCIES

(January 8, 2009) Approximately 100 Frisco homes - in an area near the intersection of County Road 712/ All Stars Avenue and North County Road -- are without AT & T phone service.

As a result, the Frisco Fire and Police Departments will step up patrols in the area to respond to emergencies for those without cell phones.

Officials say phone service was disrupted at approximately 1 p.m. when a contractor, while reconstructing County Road 712, inadvertently cut a phone line.

Residents are advised to check their phones for service. If they hear a dial tone, there is NO need to call 911, unless there is an emergency. AT & T anticipates service will be restored by 10 p.m.
