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.

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.

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 we need to carry out emergency repairs to our gas network, we'll add full details here.

Update 23 February

Emergency repairs in Belmont Road in Ayr have now been completed.

The closure remains place between the junctions with A79 Maybole Road and Belmont Avenue so we can safely restore the road surface. A signed diversion route is in operation via A79 Maybole Road, the A77 and Dalmellington Road.

We appreciate that this is a busy route. However, for safety reasons, a full road closure is necessary as our engineers are unable to work safely under temporary traffic lights due to the proximity of the level crossing.

All pedestrian footpaths remain open as normal, and access for residents within the closure will be maintained at all times.

Fenwickland Avenue and Belmont Avenue are also closed at their junctions with Belmont Road.

All going well, we expect to reopen Belmont Road, Fenwickland Avenue and Belmont Avenue at around 6pm on Tuesday 24 February. We'd like to thank the Ayr community for your understanding and patience.

Update: Wednesday 29 April 2026

Due to additional repairs needing to take place, we're having to replace an additional 600m of gas main.

For everyone's safety, the current lane closure will remain in place and be extended by approximately 400m. 

We're unable to confirm how long our work will take but we're working through the Bank Holiday weekend to minimise further disruption.

 

Previous update: Tuesday 14 April

 We will be carrying out emergency gas repairs on the A90 Eastbound Perth to Dundee road between Inchture and Longforgan. 

The works will result in a single lane closure on the inside lane of the dual carriageway for approximately 300m of road with traffic management in place from Tuesday 14 April evening for everyone’s safety. 

Please be advised that this will impact traffic in the area with additional separate road restrictions already in place further down the A90, so please leave extra time for your journey.

Our team are working hard to minimise the impact to local residents and commuters in the area. 

In the interest of safety, the majority of the works will be completed out with the main traffic peaks. 

It’s too early to say how long the repairs will take to complete – further updates will be posted here.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused by these works.

Updated Thursday 25 June

We're working to repair our network at Shottendane Road's junction with Manston Road.

For safety, we've needed to close Shottendane Road at this junction. A signed diversion is in place for affected motorists.

Our engineers have completed multiple repairs to the affected pipe here, but there are more leaks we need to fix.

We recognise this section of our network has experienced a history of leaks and is in poor condition. A pipe replacement project is planned to start on Wednesday 22 July to help minimise future disruption.

Update: 6 July 2026, 2pm

Our engineers have been on site since Monday 29 June investigating reports of gas escapes near the junction with the High Street. Investigations have identified that around 185 metres of metallic gas main - installed approximately 70 years ago - is in poor condition and needs to be replaced immediately.

To make sure the network continues to supply the gas demand required locally, we’ll be installing a new, larger‑diameter plastic main. This means we’ll need to open‑cut a trench in stages along Fletching Street. We’ll also upgrade any old metallic service pipes supplying nearby properties. We’ll be replacing our pipes from the junction with the High Street to the junction with The Avenue.

For the safety of our engineers and the public, Fletching Street will be closed around our excavations from Monday 6 July. We expect this work to take around four to five weeks.

Signed diversion routes will be in place for affected drivers. Pedestrian access will be maintained.

We’ll continue to provide updates here as the work progresses.

Updated: Thursday 6 August 2026, 6pm

We’re currently investigating reports of a gas leak in Unity Terrace.

For everyone’s safety around our work area, we’ve temporarily closed Unity Terrace at its junction with Crieff Road.

It’s too soon to say how long our work will take, and we’ll provide updates here.

Emergency Lane Closure - Gas leak

Our engineers are currently working to investigate and repair a gas leak in the Coles Avenue area of Poole.  

To do this safely, we have a westbound directional lane closure in place on Coles Avenue from the junction of Blandford Road to the junction of Hamilton Road.   

This closure will mean:

  • No through vehicle access heading westbound along Coles Avenue between the junction of Blandford Road to Hamilton Road – a diversion route via Lakes Road will be in place
  • The pedestrian walkway alongside the closure will be closed – pedestrians will be diverted on the other side of the road
  • Vehicle access to properties located within the closure will be maintained – access will be via eastbound lane and diversion route
  • Bus routes will be affected – please contact your service provider for the latest update/changes to service. 

Our engineers are working as quickly and as safely as possible to complete these repairs. It’s too early to say how long repairs will take to complete – we will keep this webpage updated

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Update: 10am, 7 July 2026

We're working to repair our gas network at the roundabout in Hallpark and Parkhead Road in Sauchie.

This work is taking longer than expected due to the location and depth of our main, but we're working as quickly and safely as possible to complete our repair.

For everyone's safety around our work area, temporary three-way traffic lights are in place, which are being manually controlled 7am to 7pm.

We're sorry for any inconvenience our work may cause, and we hope to complete our repair by the end of this week.

Updated Thursday 23 July

We're carrying out emergency gas network repairs on the B3091 near the village of West Orchard following a gas leak.

We know this closure will be frustrating for people who live, work or travel through the area, but to keep everyone safe while we repair the leak, the B3091 has been closed in both directions. The location of the closure is shown on the map below and is indicated by the red line.

A signed diversion route is in place via B3091, Manston Road, Rixton Hill, B3092 Bath Road, Walton Elm Hill, Schoolhouse Lane, Crown Road, Salisbury Street, Scotchey Hill, A30 Front Street, A30 Fern Hill, Sherbourne Causeway, Long Cross, Bleke Street, Bimport and St John's Hill.

We’re maintaining vehicle access to all the properties within the closure from the appropriate end of the road.

Bus services will also be affected, so please contact your bus operator for the latest service updates.

At this stage it's too early to confirm when our work will be complete, but we expect the repairs to continue into next week. We'll provide further updates as soon as we're able. Gas supplies to nearby homes and businesses are not affected.

Thank you for bearing with us while we carry out these essential repairs. Our engineers are working as quickly and safely as possible to reopen the road, and we appreciate your patience and understanding.

Updated: 3 August 2026, 9.45am

The A229 Maidstone Road in Staplehurst has been temporarily closed while our engineers repaired a high‑volume gas escape, which was completed on Tuesday 21 July.

However, following a joint inspection of the road surface by Kent County Council and SGN, the damage caused by the escaping gas was more extensive than first thought. Additional surveys and repairs to the carriageway were required before the road can be safely reopened.

Following further discussions with Kent County Council about the amount of repairs required, our permit has been extended, and we plan to reopen the A229 by Tuesday 11 August. 

We’re very sorry for the continued disruption and appreciate everyone’s patience while we complete this essential work.

Update – 6.47pm, Friday 7 August

Following the vehicle collision involving our gas governor in Station Road, Tidworth, we now know 159 properties nearby remain without gas.

Our engineers have repaired the gas leak caused by the damage and are now focused on restoring supplies to affected homes. To safely reintroduce gas to this section of our network, we need to visit all properties and turn off the supply at the meter. We’ve turned off 140 supplies so far and aim to visit the remaining homes this evening.

We have hotplates that can be used for cooking meals. These are available from our mobile unit stationed at Tesco on Station Road. Here our dedicated customer team is also on hand to answer any questions you may have.

We assisted Wiltshire Police to safely remove the vehicle from our damaged gas governor. We’ve assessed the full extent of the damage and need to construct and install a replacement governor nearby. This work is expected to take a few days to complete. Once installed, our engineers will then revisit homes to restore their gas supplies.

The police have now removed the exclusion zones and Station Road is reopen to motorists.

We recognise this has been a difficult time for those evacuated and are grateful for the patience and understanding shown from the Tidworth community. We’re doing everything we can to restore gas supplies as soon as possible.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Updated - 11.30am, Friday 7 August

We're working to repair a gas governor at the junction of Station Road and Perham Down Road after a vehicle collided with our network infrastructure overnight.

As a precaution, premises around the site of the incident were evacuated by the emergency services.

Our engineers are assessing the damage and carrying out safety checks in the area.  It’s too early to say when affected residents may be able to safely return to their properties or when businesses within the exclusion zone can reopen.

Due to the damage to our network infrastructure, gas supplies to around 190 nearby properties have been lost. We need to visit affected properties to switch off supplies at the meter, enabling us to safely repair this section of our network, before revisiting these homes to restore gas.

We’ll continue to update this page with further information. Thank you for your patience while we carry out these essential repairs to our gas network.

You can find more details about all our other emergency repairs at roadworks.org.

 

Planned work

Sometimes when we're carrying out our repairs, we find that we need to replace parts of our network instead. When this happens, we'll add full details here.

We’re carrying out essential work in the Leven Road area to replace a section of gas main that has recently been affected by gas leaks.

Following close consultation with Fife Council, we’ll be replacing the existing metallic mains with new, modern plastic pipe. This more durable pipe has a lifespan of around 80 years, helping to ensure a safe and reliable gas supply for the future.

Our work will take place on Leven Road, between the junctions of Victoria Street and Largo Road.

We apologise for the short notice, but in the interests of safety this work needs to be carried out as soon as possible.

Traffic management

To keep everyone safe while we work, we will have temporary traffic measures in place:

  • Three-way temporary traffic lights at Leven Road, with signals at:
    • the junction with Links Road
    • the junction with Victoria Road
    • Woodielea Road
  • Crescent Road will be closed at its junction with Leven Road

We expect our work to take around six weeks to complete.

We understand this is a busy area and there may be delays, so we’d encourage road users to plan ahead where possible.

We’d like to thank the local community for their patience and understanding while we carry out this essential work.

From Friday 3 July for a duration of four weeks, SGN engineers will be carrying out urgent work to replace a section of gas main on Shanklin Road from the junction of the roundabout at Canteen Road to where Shanklin Road meets Victoria Avenue.

These works have been planned with urgency due to a current gas escape – we are no longer able to complete long-term repairs, and replacement is the only permanent solution to avoid further gas escapes. 

Due to the location of the gas pipe in the road and for everyone’s safety, a temporary road closure between these junctions will be required. 

This road closure will mean: 

  • No through vehicle access past the closure in either direction – signed diversion routes will be in place
  • Vehicle access to properties within the closure will be maintained and the site team will liaise with properties affected to keep them informed of access arrangements
  • Pedestrian and cycle access will be maintained through the closure
  • Bin collection days will remain unaffected unless you are advised otherwise by your service provider 

Bus routes will be affected – we advise passengers to contact their service provider for the latest updates/changes to services. 

We appreciate this temporary road closure may be disruptive for residents, and we assure you our engineers will be working as quickly and as safely as possible to complete these works. 

We’re sorry for any inconvenience our work may cause and thank you for your patience and understanding.

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.
