LAWRENCE, MASS. (WHDH) - Columbia Gas is opening up a pop-up claims center in Lawrence on Monday for residents and businesses impacted by Friday’s gas leak.
The center will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the parking lot of St. Patrick’s Church, located at 118 South Broadway.
All residents were allowed to return to their homes Saturday after a gas leak in the area of South Broadway and Salem Street the day before prompted mass evacuations.
Officials say a city contractor was checking water valves when they closed a gas valve that had been mislabeled as a water valve, causing the gas main to puncture.
Columbia Gas will be setting up a pop-up Claims Center on Monday [9/30] in the parking lot at St. Patrick’s Church [118 S. Broadway, #Lawrence] from 9am-5pm for residents and businesses impacted by Friday’s gas leak. Customers may also call our Claims Helpline at 1-800-590-5571.
