Police say one of Kingston town centre's shopping streets has been shut to allow London Fire Brigade to fix an 'electrical issue'.
Town centre sergeant Sean carpenter tweeted: "Town centre disruption. Clarence street j/w Castle Street outside Starbucks. Man hole cover explosion. No injuries. Police on scene."
Eden Street was closed to traffic from Brook Street to Clarence Street.
In 2011 an underground cable explosion sent flames and debris up into the air
