I think there are pockets of construction all over -- I have quite a few outages recently with warmer and dry weather all due to various mechanical implements. On Thu, Mar 26, 2020 at 5:29 PM Kaiser, Erich <erich@gotfusion.net> wrote:
The outages in Texas are not uncommon at all. Its probably the worst vs other areas of the country. One other problem area is between Ashburn and Atlanta. We have been seeing more underlying LH carrier equipment failures vs fiber cuts in the last year.

I've had contractors for Zayo hitting multiple fiber routes over the past 3 months numerous times affecting us, AT&T, CenturyLink, Windstream, Fiberlight, etc in south Texas. Actually had one cut yesterday around 3pm and lasted till 1am.

I heard, and am seeing that construction type jobs don't seem to be affected much with the virus shutdown. I mean I see guys building homes and working on roads all around me... furthermore, we've heard of a couple fiber cuts that have brought portions of our network down a couple times in the last week or so.

Howdy,
With so much work shut down, I'm curious how backhoe season is shaping up this year? How do the circuit and fiber outage numbers look?
