Roadworks in your area

We look after more than 74,000 kilometres of pipes across our network. Making sure these pipes deliver your gas safely and reliably means that we need to upgrade or repair them at times. We know that roadworks can be frustrating, but our essential work keeps you, your family and local community safe.

Roadworks FAQs

We have a number of helpful frequently asked questions at the bottom of this page, under the Help and advice heading.

Emergency gas pipe repairs

When upgrading pipes or installing a new connection, we can plan the roadworks in advance. But when safety is at stake we must respond quickly and efficiently, and this may mean having to carry out streetworks at very short notice or at night. Sometimes we have to start work before the information filters through to our map. When that happens, we’ll add that information here.

 

Friday 10 May - A267 Frant Road Tunbridge Wells

We're continuing to carry out urgent network repairs along A267 Frant Road in Tunbridge Wells. The road remains closed to motorists in both directions between Montecute Road and Roedean Road.

However, we've completed a section that will enable us to safely reopen A267 Frant Road from Monday morning (13 May). Temporary traffic lights will be installed once this section of road has been resurfaced. These lights will be manually controlled during peak times.



Wednesday 8 May - High Street, Margate

Our engineers have been investigating a gas leak in High Street, Margate, outside St John the Baptist Church.

The source of the leak has now been identified and our specialist team has decided to replace our gas main in High Street, rather than carry out emergency repairs. This will avoid any future disruption.

High Street remains closed around our work area so that our team can safely upgrade our network.

From the Queens Road Roundabout, traffic can only travel one way along Grosvenor Gardens and into Churchfields, but there is no access into the High Street. Signed diversion routes will be in place for motorists. 

* We’ve arranged to reopen the High Street temporarily over the weekend of 10 to 12 May. This will allow Network Rail to continue their planned engineering works on Bridge 826 for which they need to close Ramsgate Road and use the High Street as a diversion route.

Our closure will once again be in place from Monday 13 May. All going well, our work will be completed on Sunday 19 May.

 

Wednesday 8 May - A28 Ashford Road, Chilham.

We’re continuing urgent repairs to fix a leak on our medium pressure main along A28 Ashford Road at Chilham.

For everyone’s safety, A28 Ashford Road is closed to motorists between its junctions with Branch Road and Pope Street. A signed diversion route via the A28, A2040, A251 and A252 is in place for affected road users.

This is a complex engineering procedure involving specialist equipment.

It is likely that our site will be unmanned periodically while we wait for the specialist equipment to be delivered to site. We will however be carrying out regular site safety checks and monitoring the leak.

We estimate the road will be closed until Tuesday 14 May. We apologise for the impact on the community and road users, but this work is essential to ensuring local homes and business continue to receive a safe and reliable supply of gas.
 

 

Wednesday 8 May – Duke Street, Glasgow

Our engineers are continuing essential emergency repairs to our gas main in Duke Street, Glasgow

In order to complete repairs, our team has put a full road closure in place between Duke Street’s junctions with Shettleston Road and Todd Street. This is complex engineering work being carried out in deep excavations using specialist equipment and contractors.

Our repair work is now complete. We now need to safely restore the road surface to the required specifications before it can reopened as normal. This is a lengthy process due to the number and depth of excavations in the road. At this time it's still too early to say how long this will take however, we aim to update you soon.

We’d like to than Glasgow residents, motorists and businesses for your patience and understanding while we work as quickly and safely as possible to repair your gas network.



Tuesday 23 April - Popley Way, Basingstoke

We’re carrying out emergency work in Popley Way, Basingstoke, to improve the gas pressure in our network. This essential work involves increasing the size of the gas service to Apollo Hotel.

To ensure everyone’s safety, we have closed Popley Road one-way, for motorists entering Popley Way from Aldermaston Roundabout. A signed diversion route is in place. Motorists exiting Popley Way onto the roundabout are unaffected.

All going well, we hope to complete our work, restore the road surface and reopen Popely Way as normal by Wednesday 1 May.

We apologise for any disruption and would like to thank anyone affected for your patience while we carry out this urgent work.


Thursday 18 April - Strathmore Street, Perth

We're carrying out urgent network repairs at the junction of Strathmore Street and Isla Road.

Our engineers are working to fix a leak and there's temporary traffic lights in place around our work area to ensure everyone's safety and manage traffic flow.

It's too early to say how long it will take to complete this work but updates will be provided here.

 

Friday 12 April - Plumstead High Street

We need to renew our gas network in Plumstead High Street.

Following discussion with Greenwich Council, we have installed three-way traffic lights at this location and implemented a closure of Woodhurst Road. One of the team will man the lights from 7am until 7pm to minimise disruption.

All being well, the work within the road closure should be completed and cleared by 26 April, at which time we will set up a smaller road closure in Camrose Street with some carriageway incursion in Plumstead High Street. The second phase should be completed in approximately three weeks.

Our team is working seven days a week to ensure any disruption to the local community is minimised.
