New Hope Christian School and Pacific Hills Christian School were evacuated as a precaution when workers ruptured a gas line on Quarry Rd near Harris Rd in Dural — in Sydney’s northwest outskirts, about an hour from the CBD — about 2pm on Tuesday.

Workers are currently excavating the road to turn off the gas.
