Gas Main Interruption

[Duluth, MN] Just before noon today, January 27, 2022, a contractor in the Lincoln Park area drove through a piling and hit a large gas main. The City of Duluth took immediate steps to shut off gas in the area, impacting one customer as a safety precaution. City staff have spent the last eight hours determining the possible impact this could have, and are working with the contractor to determine next steps.

Based on computer modeling and projections, the City does not expect additional service interruptions through tomorrow morning.

The City will be monitoring the situation overnight and will provide more information tomorrow on the timeline for repair.
