NTT have advised us that their telco is performing emergency
maintenance on their New York to London circuit. Although we do not
anticipate any problems, there will be suboptimal routing to US
destinations during this time.

This outage began at 9pm BST and will continue until 1am BST.

Comtec NOC is tracking this issue under reference
