Emergency services block off the road after a power line fell across State Highway 87 near Mosgiel yesterday.
Senior Station Officer Scott Lindsay, of Mosgiel, said it was not readily apparent what caused the line to come down.
However, a vehicle rolled in the area on Sunday morning and might have contributed to damage to the power pole.
The downed line was reported by an off-duty firefighter and linemen were called about 12.15pm yesterday.
The road was closed briefly while the line was fixed, Mr Lindsay said.
