WHAT:  On September 15-17, SoCalGas will be conducting pipeline safety testing work on 190^th Street in Torrance. Westbound and eastbound traffic on 190^th Street between Crenshaw Boulevard and Crenshaw Place will be reduced to one lane in each direction. Eastbound traffic on 190^th Street will not be able to make a left turn onto Crenshaw Place, and westbound traffic will not be able to make a right onto Crenshaw Place.

Traffic may be slower than usual. Digital message boards, safety cones and traffic control officers will be on-site directing traffic. SoCalGas advises motorists to drive carefully past the work site and observe all traffic control signs.

No interruption to natural gas service is anticipated.

Customers may smell the odor of natural gas. Although this is normal when crews are working, SoCalGas encourages anyone who has concerns about the smell of gas to call us from a safe location at 1-800-427-2200. SoCalGas is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
