More than 10,000 people in Wayne were without power Tuesday afternoon, PSE&G is reporting.

Around 20,000 Public Service Electric & Gas customers across Bergen and Passaic counties were without power Tuesday afternoon, a company spokeswoman said. 

An issue with a supply line at a substation in Wayne led to the widespread outages, spokeswoman Deann Muzikar said in a statement. Service was expected to be restored by 4 p.m. Tuesday. 

PSE&G will be placing a mobile transformer in service.

Traffic lights, including ones on Ratzer Road and Hamburg Turnpike remain out. Police are directing traffic at several intersections. Residents should be cautious when approaching major intersections.
