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.

Planned work

Friday 23 August - Kingsmills Road, Inverness

We need to carry out emergency gas mains replacement work to our network in the Kingsmills Road area of Inverness to ensure the area continues to receive a continued safe and reliable gas supply.

Our project will begin on 26 August 2024 and last approximately 17 weeks.

We’re carrying out our work in phases to reduce disruption as much as possible. Kingsmills Road will be closed in three phases.

Emergency vehicle access will be maintained during our work. Please note access into the Nursing Home will be open.

All business in the area will be open as normal during our work and access for residents will be always maintained throughout the project.

 

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.
 

Thursday 19 September - Lake Road, Portsmouth

Our engineers are carrying out emergency repair work in Lake Road.

To ensure everyone's safety, Lake Road is closed between its junctions with Church Street and Clarendon Street.

All being well, we hope to have completed our repair work this weekend.

All businesses are open as usual, and signed diversion routes are in place for motorists via Holbrook Road, Arundel Street, and Fratton Road.
 

Thursday 19 September - Brighton Road, Horley

Emergency repairs are required to our gas main in Brighton Road, Horley.

To allow our engineers to work safely, the road will be closed from 7.30pm this evening between the exit for the Longbridge Roundabout and Massetts Road.

We're using the latest technology to ensure our repairs are completed as quickly as possible. All being well, we should be able to re-open the road by 7am tomorrow morning. 
 

Wednesday 28 August - A36 Wilton Road, Salisbury

We are currently investigating a reported smell of gas in Wilton Road, Salisbury. For everyone's safety, we have installed temporary two-way traffic lights to allow our teams to excavate on the gas main in the carriageway.

We're working to complete our repair as soon as possible but it's too early to say how long our work will take. We're sorry for any inconvenience this urgent work may cause.

 

Tuesday 27 August - B759 Busby Road, Glasgow

Our engineers are responding to a gas leak in Busby Road, Glasgow, near to its junction with Newcraigs Drive.

To allow emergency repairs and to ensure everyone's safety while we work, a road closure will be in place from tomorrow morning. Road users will be diverted via B766 Carmunnock Bypass, Carmunnock Road, Hillcrest, Windlaw Road and B759 Busby Road. 

At the moment it's too early to say how long our work will take to complete.

 

Tuesday 6 August – Kanes Hill, Southampton

We're carrying out urgent repairs to our gas network in Kanes Hill, Southampton. 

Due to the location of the repairs required and for everyone’s safety, we’ve installed temporary two-way traffic lights on Kanes Hill close to Silver Tide. To help keep the traffic flowing, these lights will be manually controlled from 7am to 7pm throughout our repair.

It’s too early to say how long the repairs will take but our engineers will remain on site until the repair has been completed.

Help and advice

It could be emergency work to keep you, and our network, safe. As this type of work is urgent and unplanned, we sometimes start work before it appears on the map. 

Search for your road in our local gas works map to find out more about our work. You’ll need to change the date in the search bar so you can see our future work. Click on the gas flame icon that appears on your road to see details of what we’ll be doing in your road and when.

 

We look after the gas pipes in the south of England and across Scotland.

The dates shown on the map are taken from the works permit we are granted which doesn’t always match the duration of the works required.

For example, the permit may be for one week but the work will only take 3 days to complete. This allows for flexibility and unforeseen circumstances.

There are many reasons why roadwork dates may be change and sometimes these are things that are outside of our control.

We appreciate it is frustrating when this happens and we will do what we can to minimise impact on you.

Our barriers must stay in place until it’s completely safe for us to remove them. Sometimes we’ll have barriers up, but our engineers won’t be there. This could be because we’re working on another section of the project, or we could have finished work and we’re waiting for the new road surface to set.
