The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is aware that the 9-1-1 system has largely stabilized. All OPP Provincial Communications Centres across the province are once again receiving and processing 9-1-1 calls.
At about 4:00 a.m. today, the OPP started receiving reports of intermittent 9-1-1 outages across the province. Members of the public requiring emergency police response were directed to call the OPP non-emergency line at 1-888-310-1122, which remains fully operational.
Throughout the temporary outage, the OPP continues to respond to calls for service.
While the 9-1-1 system appears to be largely restored, it is possible that intermittent disruptions may still exist. If you are unable to reach the OPP by dialing 9-1-1, please call the OPP non-emergency line at 1-888-310-1122. Do not call 9-1-1 to test the system or confirm if it works for you.
The OPP thanks the phone network providers for expediting the restoration of the 9-1-1 service.
