UGI Utilities Announces Natural Gas Main Replacement Project in Nazareth

UGI Utilities, Inc. has announced the commencement of a natural gas main replacement project in Nazareth, starting Monday, August 11. This initiative underscores UGI's dedication to ensuring the safety and reliability of its natural gas services. The project not only aims to upgrade the existing infrastructure but also presents an opportunity for residences and businesses along the project's path to switch to natural gas, potentially offering them a more efficient energy solution.

The underground construction is anticipated to conclude by the end of October, with the work affecting several key streets in Nazareth. These include South Church Street, Mauch Chunk Street, Belvidere Street, Progress Avenue, South Green Street, and South Spruce Street. Construction activities will occur from Monday to Friday, 7:00am to 5:00pm, potentially causing road closures, detours, and traffic delays. Parking restrictions on the affected streets and temporary interruptions to natural gas service are also expected, necessitating UGI's access to properties for equipment inspection and relighting.

Factors such as weather and working conditions may influence the project's timeline. Following the completion of underground work, final paving and restoration efforts will be scheduled. UGI has extended an invitation to those interested in converting to natural gas to reach out for more information.
