UGI Utilities, Inc. has announced the commencement of a natural gas main replacement project in Quakertown, starting August 1, 2025. This initiative underscores UGI's dedication to ensuring the safety and reliability of its natural gas services. The project, expected to conclude by mid-September, will involve upgrades along Rich Hill Road between Whaland Road and Masi Drive, potentially affecting local traffic and parking during construction hours.
Residents and businesses in the vicinity may experience temporary inconveniences, including road closures, detours, and intermittent natural gas service interruptions. UGI has outlined that access to properties will be necessary for equipment inspection and relighting post-interruption. The company also highlights this as an opportunity for eligible properties along the route to convert to natural gas, promoting energy efficiency and cost savings.
Weather conditions may influence the project's timeline, with final paving and restoration scheduled after the underground work is completed. UGI encourages those interested in converting to natural gas to reach out for more information. Further details about UGI Utilities, Inc. and its services can be found at https://www.ugi.com.
