RENO, Nev. (AP) — AT&T telephone service has been fully restored in the Reno-Sparks area but spotty outages persist in Carson City.

Carson City Sheriff Ken Furlong says progress is being made but there's still some small difficulties there.

Nevada Department of Transportation spokesman Scott Magruder told the Reno Gazette-Journal no one has been able to call into their Carson City headquarters since Monday.

Widespread outages began across a large section of northern Nevada on Monday and Internet access was restricted into Tuesday. Washoe County communications supervisor Clay Griffin says all service was restored in the Reno area by about 3 a.m. Wednesday.
