According to WIOC, The site of the leak was identified in the vicinity of Wenty\u2019s Apartments and Toy Toy Restaurant in upper Fort Road.<\/p>\n

It said in news release that the ruptured line has since been repaired by our maintenance and terminal staff, who undertook the requisite emergency procedures to mitigate the impact from the leak. The leak site remains excavated as we are currently working with other agencies to complete the operation and fully restore the roadway. We expect this to be completed by close of business on Wednesday May 1, 2019.<\/p>
