Ruptured Gas Line Closes Marsh at Belt Line

A broken gas line shut down the intersection of Belt Line Road and Marsh Lane Tuesday for about three hours Tuesday.

The intersection is on the border of Addison and Farmers Branch, though the actual leak is in Addison, adjacent to a Wells Fargo bank.

According to Tom Bryson, Farmers Branch public information officer, a construction crew working in the area cut into a 6-inch gas line.

Crews with Atmos Energy worked to repair the breach. It took about three hours to fix the line and reopen the intersection.
