The outages continued well into Friday, with Shaw saying workers were “coming close to a complete resolution” around 1:30 p.m., adding service was restored around 3:15 p.m.

On its community support page, the company said the outage was due to a “severed fibre connection to our network infrastructure.”

Shaw said customers impacted by the disruptions should contact the company with their customer account number to have a credit “applied accordingly for the time the service is affected.”

“Some customers in Southern Calgary may be experiencing an interruption to internet, cable television and home phone services,” the company said on its website.
