Our engineers are this evening (Thursday 9^th September) repairing a damaged gas main on Riverside Industrial Estate, Middlesbrough, which has required Depot Road to be closed.

The gas main was damaged earlier today by a third party contractor and our engineers will be carrying out repairs throughout Friday (10^th September). It expected that the road will be open by the afternoon, however, a short diversion is in place and we apologise for any inconvenience.

Anyone needing any support, can call the Customer Care Team on 0800 040 7766 or send an email to customercare@northergas.co.uk. Further updates will be provided via the Northern Gas Networks website and on social media.

Thank you to business owners for their patience and co-operation whilst this repair is made.

Engineers from Northern Gas Networks have restored gas supplies to the majority of properties at St James Street, Hull, following a water ingress incident which began on Tuesday morning.

The issue was caused by water from a burst water main finding its way into the gas network.

Approximately 250 properties were affected. Engineers have removed the water from the network and restored supplies to all residential properties, while continuing to work with industrial and commercial properties today.

Cards have been posted at a small number of empty properties, asking owners to call Northern Gas Networks on their return home,  in order for their gas to be restored.

Customers who have any questions or support can still call Northern Gas Networks’ Customer Care team on  0800 040 7766 followed by option 3 or email customercare@northerngas.co.uk

Our engineers have worked through today to restore the gas supply to the St James Street area of Hull.

Water has now been removed from the gas mains and the gas supply has been restored to an initial 103 properties. We are now visiting customers’ homes to safely relight their gas boilers, starting with those who are most vulnerable. We will then work to gradually relight boilers in homes and expect this to be complete this evening. We will then move on to commercial properties.

Where customers are not at home, we will put a card through the door, asking them to call us as soon as possible to arrange a time for our engineers to visit.
