UGI Utilities, Inc. will begin a natural gas main replacement project in Easton on September 17, 2025, following a rescheduling from the original August start date. The infrastructure upgrades represent the company's ongoing commitment to delivering safe and reliable natural gas service to its customer base. The project scope includes underground work on multiple key streets: South 15th Street between Northampton Street and Liberty Street, Northampton Street between South 15th Street and North 7th Street, North 7th Street between Northampton Street and Church Street, and South 12th Street between Northampton Street and Ferry Street.
Construction operations will occur Monday through Friday from 7:00am to 5:00pm, with completion of the new natural gas main installation anticipated by early January, though weather and working conditions may affect this timeline. This infrastructure improvement project presents a significant opportunity for homes and businesses located along the construction route to convert to natural gas service. The system upgrades facilitate easier access to natural gas infrastructure, potentially lowering conversion costs and barriers for property owners considering the switch from other energy sources.
Residents and business operators should prepare for temporary disruptions including road closures, detours, and parking restrictions during construction hours. Natural gas service interruptions will occur periodically, requiring UGI technicians to access properties for equipment inspection and relighting procedures. Final paving and restoration work will follow the main installation phase. The Easton project underscores the utility's ongoing investment in modernizing energy infrastructure to meet evolving community needs while maintaining service reliability and safety standards.
UGI Utilities serves more than 760,000 customers across its service territory. Additional information about the company's operations and services is available at https://www.ugi.com. The infrastructure upgrades are part of broader efforts to enhance energy delivery systems and support community development through improved utility services.
