GN is currently on site near Lye Brae in Cumbernauld where there is a significant gas escape.
SGN engineers are working to safely make repairs to the gas main but due to the complexity of this work, it’s too early to say when those repairs will be completed.
To ensure everyone’s safety, a cordon has been put in place and Lye Brae has been closed in both directions.
SGN has provided reassurance to the local community that the gas network remains safe and there is no risk to their safety.
Please note – due to the potential for local firework displays planned for today and this evening, if you live within the exclusion zone shown on the map below, it’s important that no fireworks are set off for safety reasons.
SGN apologise for the inconvenience this will cause.
There may be a smell of gas across the local area but despite this SGN recommend that if anyone can smell gas or has any safety concerns, they should call the National Gas Emergency Number on 0800 111 999.
