CRANBERRY TWP — Rochester Road is closed after road crews struck a six-inch gas line under the roadway just before 10 a.m. Monday.

According to a Butler County emergency dispatcher, the gas line was struck at 9:50 a.m. on Rochester Road near the Cranberry Township municipal building. Roadwork has been planned for that segment of road for several months.
