UGI Utilities Announces Natural Gas Main Replacement Project in Easton

UGI Utilities, Inc. has announced the commencement of a natural gas main replacement project in Easton, starting Wednesday, August 6. This initiative underscores UGI's dedication to ensuring the safety and reliability of its natural gas services. The project, expected to conclude by mid-October, will involve underground work on North 13th Street between Bushkill Drive and Wood Avenue, potentially affecting traffic and parking in the area.

The construction, scheduled from 7:00am to 5:00pm, Monday through Friday, may lead to road closures, detours, and traffic delays. UGI has also indicated that there will be temporary interruptions to natural gas service, necessitating access to properties for inspection and equipment relighting. The company has advised residents and business owners to prepare for these changes and has highlighted the opportunity for those along the project route to convert to natural gas.

Weather and working conditions could influence the project's timeline, with final paving and restoration planned after the underground work is completed. UGI encourages interested parties to explore natural gas conversion options by contacting the company directly.

This project represents a significant investment in Easton's infrastructure, aiming to enhance the reliability of natural gas services while minimizing inconvenience to the community. The initiative not only improves the existing system but also offers a pathway for more residents and businesses to benefit from natural gas services.
