A gas leak caused by a blown electric cable was repaired in Islington after the evacuation of over 200 people, allowing them to return to their homes.
Firefighters established a 50-metre cordon on Parkhurst Road as they worked alongside Cadent and UK Power Networks to ensure the safety of residents and facilitate repairs.
Cadent reported that an electric cable had blown, damaging a gas main and leading to a significant gas leak that prompted the evacuation for safety measures.
The response included multi-agency cooperation, with emergency services collaborating to manage the situation and ensure the safe return of evacuated residents.
