SERVICES from Petts Wood railway station are still running, despite a power cut in the area.

Some shops in Station Square are currently closed as is the ticket office at the train station.

A spokesman for EDF Energy, which manages power networks across the country, said: "EDF Energy Networks engineers are on their way to repair an underground cable fault in Orpington.

"The fault, which occurred at 9.36am, has interrupted the power supply to up to 50 customers.

"We do understand how much inconvenience any interruption to power can cause, and apologise to anyone affected."
