Be advised that
earlier today a gas main leak was detected on North Avenue, between Sheffield and the Chicago River this morning. The update we've received from People's Gas indicated that the leak is primarily centered around North Avenue and Magnolia, near the Home Depot. According to People's Gas, the repair is expected to be complete within 4 hours.
Until repair, North Avenue will be closed in the affected areas. We strongly advise residents to seek alternative routes, avoiding the area if possible.
For more information, please contact our office at (773) 348-9500.
