A natural gas line leak on Lewis Avenue near the Broken Arrow Expressway early Tuesday has closed Lewis between 12th and 15th Streets.
The Tulsa Fire Department says a City of Tulsa water department crew working on a water line accidentally cut the gas line at about 1:30 a.m. As a precaution, Lewis is closed in both directions. The nearby BA Expressway, however remains up.
