Roads reopen after hazmat response to gas line rupture in Tampa: TFR

Tampa Fire Rescue (TFR) said Monday afternoon it was on the scene of a gas line rupture caused by construction.

TFR said the incident happened on March 23 on South Boulevard.

According to TFR's social media post, Platt Street was closed from South Edison to South Fielding. South Boulevard was closed in both directions between West Azeele and West Cleveland Streets, as the Hazmat team and TECO worked to mitigate the situation.

The roads have since reopened after the gas line was fixed, TFR told Tampa Bay 28.
