UGI Utilities is scheduled to begin a significant natural gas system upgrade project in Lancaster on Monday, November 10, 2025, as part of the company's ongoing commitment to maintaining safe and reliable service infrastructure. The project involves replacing aging natural gas mains across multiple city streets and is expected to continue through mid-January, weather and working conditions permitting.
The infrastructure improvements will specifically impact West Mifflin Street between South Mulberry Street and South Water Street, Hoffman Terrace, South Water Street between West King Street and West Mifflin Street, and West Grant Street between North Arch Street and North Water Street. Construction operations are planned for Monday through Friday between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., with lane and parking restrictions anticipated during these hours that will affect drivers, residents, and business owners in the construction zones.
Service interruptions to natural gas delivery will occur during the project timeline, requiring UGI technicians to access properties for equipment inspection and relighting procedures. The utility company emphasizes that these temporary disruptions are necessary to complete the system upgrades that will enhance long-term reliability and safety for the community.
