Regional Police and fire crews were on scene at King and Hickory in Waterloo this morning dealing with a gas leak.
Officials told 570 News a “significant gas line” was hit.
A small evacuation took place.
As a result, King was closed at Columbia and at Hickory, and Hickory was closed at Regina.
Officials had the gas leak contained by around 11:30 am.
Roads have since re-opened, but there is currently only one lane open in each direction on King St.
More to come.
