Firefighters tackle petrol station gas leak
Motorists travelling around Kewdale are urged to avoid the intersection of Abernethy and Kewdale roads as firefighters deal with a gas leak at a petrol station.

Police have cordoned off the roads around the Shell petrol station and are redirecting traffic.

Firefighters from Belmont and Welshpool are spraying cold water on a gas line that ruptured about 12.20pm.

A Fire and Emergency Services Authority spokesperson said the cold water was used to minimise the risk of ignition.
