BATON ROUGE - College Drive was partially closed off Thursday afternoon due to a gas leak reported along the busy roadway.

The Baton Rouge Fire Department said northbound lanes were shut down between Perkins Road and I-10 after workers ruptured a line while digging in the area. 

Crews have since stopped the leak, and northbound side of the roadway has partially reopened while repairs are completed.
