UGI Announces Natural Gas Main Replacement Project in Lancaster County

UGI Utilities, Inc. will commence a natural gas main replacement project on Manheim Pike in Lancaster County starting July 28, 2025, as part of its ongoing efforts to ensure safe and reliable service. This initiative not only aims to upgrade the system but also presents an opportunity for certain homes and businesses along the route to switch to natural gas. The project, expected to conclude by mid-September, will affect traffic on Manheim Pike between Abraso Street and Dexter Avenue, and Dexter Avenue between Manheim Avenue and Manheim Pike.

Construction will primarily occur from Monday to Friday, 6:00pm to 6:00am, with a shift to daytime hours (7:00am to 3:00pm) on August 18. Residents and commuters should anticipate road closures, detours, and potential delays, along with parking restrictions on the affected streets. Interruptions to natural gas service are expected, necessitating UGI's access to properties for equipment inspection and relighting. The project's timeline may be influenced by weather and working conditions, with final paving and restoration to follow the underground work.

For those considering a switch to natural gas, UGI has provided contact information, though the company's broader service details can be found at https://www.ugi.com. This project underscores UGI's commitment to infrastructure improvement and customer service in Lancaster County.
