CENTERVILLE — After a construction crew clipped a gas line on Monday afternoon, several businesses in the area of Parish Lane and 400 West decided to close for the remainder of the day.

According to the Centerville Police Department, the construction company was widening one of the roads near 400 West and Parrish Lane when they clipped a 4-inch gas line.

Police closed the intersection while Enbridge Gas, South Davis Metro Fire, Centerville Police and Public Works responded to the problem.

Sgt. Michael Dingman said crews would first close the lines, and then work on the leak itself.

Dingman said nobody was injured and no evacuations were needed.

However, Dingman said several businesses in the area decided to close for the day. He said this was a decision made by the businesses, and was not a requirement.
