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
Tuesday 17 December - Festing Road, Southsea
We’re continuing emergency repairs to our gas network in Festing Road, Southsea, on the junction of Albert Road and Highland Road. Our work has been planned in close consultation with the local authorities.
In the early stages of this critical project we attempted to repair our gas main, but due to its condition we took the difficult decision to replace the main with new modern plastic pipe instead. We realise this is a traffic sensitive location, but replacing the main now will reduce the overall inconvenience of future repairs and ensure a safe and reliable gas supply to the local community for many years to come.
This is complex engineering project which has been delayed due the requirement of ordering specialist fittings for the gas main replacement. Once the repair is complete, the restoration of the road surface will also take longer than normal due to limited access to reinstatement materials during the festive period.
All going well, we’re aiming to complete the replacement of gas main by the end of January. We apologise for the disruption caused by this work and would like to thank the Southsea community for your ongoing patience and support.
Thursday 21 November - Horsham Road, Bramley, Guildford
We need to carry out investigation work on a pipe at the roundabout in Horsham Road next to the Asda Express petrol station.
To carry out this work safely, we need to install temporary four-way traffic lights around the roundabout on Thursday 21 November at 8pm. We are hoping that this work will be completed and to be able to remove these lights overnight before Friday 22 November.
We understand that a road closure causes inconvenience within the local community and will only use traffic management when necessary to keep everyone safe.
Thank you for your patience.
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.
Friday 20 December - South Road, Hailsham
We're carrying out urgent repairs to our gas network outside the BP garage on South Road.
Our engineers are working to identify the source of the leak and make the required repairs to affected pipes.
To ensure everyone's safety, temporary traffic lights have been installed around our work area. These lights are being manually operated to help minimise disruption on this busy route.
While the lights are in place, we'd recommend motorists to allow extra time for your journeys.
All being well, we hope to have the repairs made and resurfacing works completed before Christmas.
Friday 20 December - Bearsted Road, Maidstone
We're continuing emergency repairs to our medium pressure gas main in Bearsted Road, Maidstone.
To keep everyone safe around our work area we've installed temporary four-way traffic lights.
We've now located the gas leak and repairs are in progress. We're aware that this is a traffic sensitive area and our engineering team is working around the clock 24/7 to complete repairs as quickly and safely as possible.
Once our repairs are complete, we'll start the process of safely restoring the road surface to the required specifications. All going well, we can remove our temporary traffic lights on Monday 23 December.
Thursday 19 December - A96 Raigmore Interchange, Inverness
We've completed repairs to our gas network at the A96 Raigmore Interchange in Inverness and we're currently reinstating the road.
For everyone's safety, we've temporarily closed one lane on the A96 at the interchange and one lane on Millburn Road.
All being well, we hope to reopen both lanes on the afternoon of Friday 20 December.
Wednesday 18 December - Pett Level Road, Pett Level
Engineering work to urgently replace 200m of poor condition old metal gas main with new durable plastic pipe was completed on Tuesday 17 December.
Work is now ongoing to restore the road surface, which may take longer than normal due to limited access to reinstatement materials approaching the festive period. We're working hard to resolve this issue and, all going well, the road will be reopened before Monday 23 December.
We're sorry for the disruption caused by our work and thank the local community for their patience and understanding while this essential work was carried out.
Friday 13 December - St Augustine's Road, Canterbury
Our engineers are carrying out urgent work on our gas network in the St Augustine's Road area of Canterbury, to ensure local properties continue to receive a safe and reliable supply of gas.
We've identified several leaks on this section of our pipework, and we've decided to replace this section rather than repair it, to help minimise future disruption and having to return to the area.
For everyone's safety, St Augustine's Road remains closed to motorists and a signed diversion route is in place for affected road users. Temporary traffic lights have also been installed close to its junction with A2050 New Dover Road so people can safely cross this carriageway while we connect our new gas main to our network here.
All being well, we'll complete our engineering and reinstatement work next week, and the traffic lights will be able to be removed by Friday 20 December.
Thursday 12 December - Beaver Road, Ashford
We're continuing to investigate the source of gas readings found along Beaver Road.
We've repaired several leaking service pipes and pipe joints with investigations continuing to ensure all leaks have been identified.
Our current estimated end date is now 18 December, but we'll continue to provide updates here.
For everyone’s safety around our work area, the westbound lane of Beaver Road remains temporarily closed. Traffic approaching the B2229 Beaver Road from Norman Road is diverted along Bond Road and Jemmett Road where it rejoins the route onto Beaver Lane. Eastbound traffic is not affected.
Wednesday 11 December - A96, Keith
We need to carry out emergency repairs to our gas network in the A96 in Keith.
Due to ongoing bridge repair work in the area, we’ll need to temporarily close this section of the A96. A signed diversion is in place via the A95 to Portsoy and the A98 to Fochabers.
It’s too soon to say how long our work will take but we’ll reopen the road as soon as it is safe to do so.
Monday 9 December - roundabout with Gore Road, Old Milton Road and Whitefield Road, New Milton
From Monday 9 December, we'll be carrying out emergency repairs to the gas main located in the centre of the road on the Old Milton Road roundabout. For everyone's safety, it will be necessary to close the roundabout.
This closure will mean no access from Gore Road, Old Milton Road and Whitefield Road to the roundabout. Access from the southern side of Old Milton Road left onto Gore Road will be maintained.
At this stage, it’s too early to say how long the repairs will take. Our engineers are committed to completing these works as quickly and safely as possible, and will be working on site until repairs are complete.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Wednesday 4 December - Raigmore Interchange/Millburn Road, Inverness
We need to close one lane off the Raigmore Interchange on to Milburn Road in Inverness, from Monday 9 December at 9.30am.
This is for essential emergency repairs to our gas network.
