Despite the presence of five Torrance Police officers out there directing vehicles, I'm told traffic is very heavy at the intersection and motorists are urged to find an alternate route.
Power to the signals went out at about 1 p.m. and it's unclear when Southern California Edison will have the problem fixed, a Torrance Police Department spokesman said.
Updated: 3:05 p.m. Sunday.
Torrance Police say Edison has fixed the problem and the signals are working normally.
The electricity is/was out at Del Amo Mall also, closing stores, Joann's, Macy's, Target and Ralphs.
