From the City of Bellaire:

UPDATE: 

The gas leak at Bissonnet and Fifth has been stopped.  The shelter-in-place has been lifted.  The permanent repair should be made this afternoon.   The eastbound lane of Bissonnet near the Randall’s will be closed while CenterPoint makes the original repair, but the road will be open to traffic.

Earlier this morning a gas line break occurred at Bissonnet Street and Fifth Street.  Emergency crews have contained the area, Bissonnet Street between Bellaire Blvd. and Cedar Street has been closed to traffic.  CenterPoint Energy is on site and has reported that the repair may take several hours.  We urge you to avoid the area this afternoon until the leak has been repaired and the City’s emergency responders have opened the street.
