Engineers face 'challenges' as they try to restore gas to the last 100 properties, Cadent Gas says.
Engineers are still working to reconnect gas supplies to the last of 2,000 homes in Sheffield which were cut off 12 days ago.About 100 homes were still without gas supplies on Tuesday as overnight temperatures fell to -4C .
Cadent Gas said "complicated engineering challenges" had so far prevented its workers from restoring power to the remaining properties. Hundreds of engineers have been working to pump water from the network and restore gas to residents left without central heating or cooking facilities since 2 December.
Cadent said in a statement on Tuesday night: "We know those of you not on gas just want this to end. We're frustrated we couldn't resolve this today. "We're getting much closer to bringing this to a conclusion, if you can just continue to bear with us a little longer."
