Gas Leak CBD

The Team from Bay of Plenty & Taupo Police

Police are asking pedestrians to avoid the Taupo CBD, and building occupants to remain inside with cordons being put in place due to a gas leak.

Cordons are in place across an 800 metre radius around Horomatangi Street.

Cordons include the intersections of Horomatangi Street, Ruapehu, Tamamutu, and Titiraupenga Streets, and the lake front.

Police are asking pedestrians to avoid the area and for those in buildings to remain within the building with the windows closed and air conditioning off.
