Firefighters were on the scene, and roads were closed Wednesday afternoon due to reports of a gas leak in Montreal’s Village neighbourhood. Papineau Avenue was closed towards the Jacques-Cartier Bridge between Maisonneuve and René-Lévesque boulevards. It was reopened by 2 p.m. The source of the leak appears to be a major construction site on Sainte-Catherine Street East near Champlain Street. In addition to the Montreal Fire Department (SIM), Énergir crews are currently on the scene. There have been no evacuations ordered. - With files from Noovo Info.
