Gas Main Break Closes Lanes on Belt Parkway

A gas main break in Brooklyn has shut down several lanes on the Belt Parkway and is causing delays, officials say.

National Grid says a construction crew working near 290 Flatbush Ave. struck a gas main at about 10 p.m. 

The westbound and eastbound exits at Flatbush Avenue on Belt Parkway were closed.

There are no homes in the area, and no one was hurt. National Grid crews shut down the gas line.
