Cadent, which manages the UK's National Gas Emergency Service, reported that a burst water main caused significant flooding in the gas network in north London, prompting the need to turn off supply. The spokesperson elaborated, "We must remove every drop from the outside gas mains, as well as the pipes that go into each property, gas meters, boilers and appliances." This substantial disruption affected multiple areas, namely Muswell Hill, Colney Hatch, and Hornsey.
In response to the emergency, Cadent emphasized the rigorous safety measures required to restore gas supply. They stated, "We first need to turn off supply at every impacted property, then remove all the water that flooded in, and only then can we safely reintroduce gas to the network." The company set up support services for the community affected by the disruption.
