About 2,800 Northwest Dallas residents could be without gas service for up to three weeks while Atmos Energy works to replace gas lines and meters.

This comes after a number of gas leaks forced 300 people to evacuate. One leak is suspected to have caused a house explosion that killed a 12-year-old girl.
