Gas line struck in parking lot at Waterford apartment complex

7055 Round Hill Drive, Waterford · Nov 5, 2026, 2:40 PM

Waterford Fire responded to the 7055 block of Round Hill Drive after a report that an underground gas line was hit in a parking lot, with hissing and blowing gas reported. Crews reported gas escaping through cracks in the asphalt and explosive-limit readings closer to some apartment buildings, and they prepared for a possible evacuation. Rescue crews were asked to help evacuate some buildings, but the radio later said there was no reason to evacuate at that time. The gas utility was on scene working the leak and was expected to be there a while, and the fire engine cleared service.
