Restored gas supply in Haag after line damage!

A dramatic incident shook the municipality of Haag this morning when a high -ranking gas line suddenly broke around 6:00 a.m., a loud bang was shook and the gas supply was interrupted for around 3,500 customers. However, the rescue approached quickly: thanks to the tireless work of the Netz Lower Austria employees, the gas supply could be restored at 3.45 a.m. after intensive repair work. "The first step was to restore the supply as soon as possible - we succeeded," said Michael Kovarik, spokesman for the Netz.ORF.AT. The gas supply is currently being ensured via a replacement line, while the cause research has started in parallel.

As a result, two adjacent houses were evacuated, but the residents were able to return to their apartments in the morning.

In the meantime, Netz Lower Austria employees are ready to provide support to all households whose gas gases did not go into operation on their own after the incident.
