GREENSBORO, N.C. Long lines that clogged up gas stations across the Triad have started to disappear after a few days of panic-buying. Colonial Pipeline said it has reopened all of its pipeline systems after a cyberattack last Friday.
The company said that every market they service should be getting fuel by now. Gas pumps though remain shrouded by plastic bags at thousands of gas stations across the southeastern U.S. But the pipeline company reported “substantial progress” in restarting the line.
