Gas Leak Near San Francisco Hall Of Justice Capped

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) -- A gas leak near San Francisco's Hall of Justice that prompted a shelter-in-place advisory Thursday morning has been mitigated, according to authorities.

The leak, which began just after 10 a.m., is occurring near Seventh and Bryant streets. Police have closed the intersection.

The leak appears to be associated with a nearby construction project.

PG&E crews arrived on scene as of 10:30 a.m.

Shortly after 11 a.m., San Francisco Fire officials tweeted that the gas leak had been mitigated.

The Muni lines that had been rerouted due to street closures related to the gas leak were resuming their regular routes, according to the SFMTA.

The Seventh Street off-ramp from eastbound Interstate Highway 80 is also closed as a result of the incident.
