A couple of explosions occurred in downtown Concord this morning due to a broken natural gas line in a construction site.
The explosions occurred in the construction area on Grant St. near Frederick St. in Concord.
UPDATE: There is a ~150 gallon diesel spill from the burning construction vehicle.
UPDATE: PG&E emergency crews were able to shut down the ruptured natural gas line. ConFire crews will remain committed on scene for extensive mop-up. No major injuries were reported.

Oops! Guess they missed the street markings for that line.
PGandE are a bunch of idiots . Try dealing with them and you will see. No wonder why everyone hates them
these were lowest bid construction contractor hired by the beloved city of Concord officials…
my fly was at the high school and said each explosion shook the building very hard, they locked down.
By lowest bidder, I’m guessing it was Concord’s favorite contractor – the (red & yellow) trucks.
They ignore All 811/USA markings.
Repeat offenders.
The all red trucks are good, the all yellow trucks are good and the all gold trucks are good.

The red with yellow and red with blue are ghetto junk. You get what you pay for out there.
Bay Cities should have known that line was there before the mixer even started. Trying to do everything is their first mistake. Hows your minority owned ESG score city contract working out in real life? This is probably not the low bidder. That’s not how they do it anymore.
If you don’t know what ESG scores are, time to learn.
11 PG&E workers don’t like that comment. They are probably the 11 guys standing around looking at their phones and “watching” one guy do the work.
Have anybody noticed that the new road is not smooth they need to talk to yhe people that do the roads in Oregon all there roads are perfect not like California roads
They haven’t put the final lift of asphalt on yet. They will put the final lift on when they finish pave the whole roadway.
You just make sure you get it compacted. 55 and rising ain’t gonna happen at night so you should be working during the day. I guarantee it will be jacked up when they finish. The lines will be sloppy and the new surface will be bumpy.
Call 811 before you dig.
Obviously there’s no power in the area, overhead power lines were burned

Insurance claims, injury claims, and criminal & civil lawsuits are on the way!
