Police reopened Route 1 in Saugus this morning after the road was closed for 90 minutes when a construction crew triggered a natural gas leak.

The road was closed in both directions at about 9:35 a.m. near Jo-Anne’s Fabric & Crafts, said Lieutenant Mike Annese of the Saugus Police Department.

A construction crew accidentally trigged the leak, Annese said. Gas service to the area has been temporarily shutoff, he said.
