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.
Planned work
Wednesday 9 April - Western Road, Auchterarder
From Monday 12 May, our engineers will be working in Western Road Auchterarder, to carry out upgrade work to our gas network.
Three-way temporary traffic lights will be in place for the duration of our work, which is expected to take five weeks to complete.
We know this is a bust route and will be working as quickly as possible.
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 25 April - A229 Loose Road, Maidstone
We're continuing to carry out urgent repairs to our gas network in the Loose Road area.
Our engineers have completed several repairs to leaking joints and service pipes near Loose Road's junctions with Cripple Street and Boughton Lane. We expect to be able to reopen Cripple Street and Boughton Lane this afternoon.
However, we need to investigate further gas leaks between The Farrows and the fire station, and Loose Road remains closed for everyone's safety. Further updates will be posted on this page.
Thursday 24 April - Crieff Road, Perth
We’re carrying out emergency repairs to our gas main in Crieff Road, Perth.
For everyone’s safety, temporary two-way lights are in place at Crieff Road’s junction with Unity Terrace. Unity Terrace is also closed at this junction to help improve traffic flow on the main road.
This is a complex repair which requires extensive work in challenging conditions due to the depth of the affected gas main and close proximity of other underground utilities.
While we’re making progress, more is required to complete repairs and it’s too early to say how long this work will take at this stage.
We’d like to thank the Perth community for your ongoing patience and support.
Thursday 24 April - Hamble Lane, Netley, Southampton
Our engineers have been called to a gas escape on the medium-pressure cast iron gas main located within the footpath on Hamble Lane, opposite the Hound Nurseries.
To ensure we provide an alternative safe pedestrian walkway around our work area and to allow us to safely carry out the required repairs, we've installed two-way temporary traffic lights. These traffic lights will remain in place until the work and reinstatement is complete.
It's too early to say how long the investigation and repairs will take but we’ll provide updates as soon as we have more information.
Wednesday 23 April – Milton Road/Velder Avenue, Portsmouth
We are currently carrying out emergency repairs to our network on the junction of Milton Road and Velder Avenue in Portsmouth.
To avoid the need to close Milton Road for our engineers to complete repairs, we’ll be using a specialist contractor to carry out an innovative bonding and repair process. Work is underway from today (Wednesday 23 April) and the team are measuring up to manufacture a mould cask which will then be wrapped around the gas main and bonded.
For everyone’s safety, lanes will be reduced to one lane in each direction at the junction of Milton Road and Velder Avenue.
Our specialist contractors and engineers will be working on and off site over the coming days – this may mean there may be limited visibility of engineers on site at times. Please be assured the repairs of the gas main are an immediate priority.
We’ll provide an update as soon as we have a timeline for carrying out the moulding process and reinstatement work required.
Wednesday 23 April - Dirleton Avenue, North Berwick
We've completed emergency repairs to our gas network in Dirleton Avenue in North Berwick.
We're currently in the process of restoring the road surface to the required specifications. All going well, the road will be reopened as normal by morning peak time on Friday 25 April.
We’d like to thank the North Berwick community once again for your patience and support.
Thursday 17 April - A926 between Rattray and Alyth
Our gas network in the A926 between Rattray and Alyth requires further emergency repairs.
To access our gas pipe and carry out our work safely, the road will be closed on Sunday 20 April between the Rattray and Alyth.
A signed diversion route will be in place for motorists.
Bus routes will be diverted - please check with your operator for more information on service diversions.
We know this will cause further inconvenience and we'll be working as quickly as possible. At the moment, we expect our work to take between two/three weeks to complete.
Thursday 17 April - Whitstable Road, Faversham
Our engineers are carrying out emergency upgrades to our gas main in Whitstable Road, Faversham, between the junctions of Head Hill Road and the A299 Thanet Way.
Work started yesterday and is expected to last two to three weeks.
To ensure everyone's safety, a road closure in place for the duration of work. This is following emergency work to investigate and repair the network on 2 April, at the junction with Head Hill Road, when we identified the gas pipe required immediate replacement.
Wednesday 16 April – A28 Canterbury Road, Chilham
Our engineers are carrying out repairs to our gas network on the A28 Canterbury Road near the junction with Meadow Close.
Temporary traffic signals are in place to keep everyone safe around our work.
Repairs have been made, but investigations are ongoing to ensure any remaining minor leaks are located quickly and repaired.
All going well, we hope to be able to remove our traffic lights on Friday 25 April. We know this is a busy location and apologise for the inconvenience caused while we carry out this essential work.
Wednesday 9 April – Weymouth Way, Weymouth
We’re continuing emergency repairs on our gas main within the nature reserve next to Weymouth Way.
Temporary two-way traffic lights remain in place on Weymouth Way between Manor Roundabout and Chafeys Roundabout for everyone’s safety. The lights are being manned from 7am to 7pm to help minimise the impact on traffic.
We've been working on repairs in challenging ground conditions in close consultation with Radipole Lake Nature Reserve. Due to the pipeline's condition, we've taken a difficult strategic decision to replace 150 metres of this pipeline which is an important asset supplying thousands of domestic and non-domestic properties.
All going well, our work will take approximately five weeks to complete. We apologise for any inconvenience and disruption and would like to thank the Weymouth community for your continuing patience and support.
Wednesday 12 March - Sikeside Street, Coatbridge
We need to carry out emergency repairs to our gas network in Sikeside Street, Coatbridge.
Our teams will be putting in place three-way temporary lights at the junction of Sikeside Street, Calder Street and the B753 from 11am on Thursday 13 March.
We know this is a busy junction, especially at peak hours, so we will be manually controlling our traffic lights during this time to help traffic flow.
It's too early to say how long repairs will take to complete, but we'll keep you updated on this page.
Tuesday 11 March - Weymouth Way, Weymouth
We’re carrying out preparation and investigation work on what we believe to be a significant gas leak on our gas network pipe in Weymouth Way.
For everyone’s safety around our work area, we’ve installed temporary two-way traffic lights.
We are working with the local council and the RSPB nature reserve wardens to complete these works in a respectful, timely and safe manner.
We don’t yet have a dedicated completion date but we’re in the process of planning and preparing as much as we can for these works, which will involve specialist equipment and teams in the coming weeks.
We’re sorry for any inconvenience and disruption caused while we ensure the safety of customers and our gas network.
