UGI Utilities Announces System Upgrades in Milton to Enhance Service Reliability

UGI Utilities has announced the commencement of system upgrades in Milton starting Monday, August 4th, as part of its ongoing commitment to ensuring safe and reliable service for its customers. This initiative not only aims to replace gas mains but also presents an opportunity for certain homes and businesses along the project route to switch to natural gas, marking a significant step towards energy efficiency and sustainability.

The upgrade project, anticipated to conclude by the end of September, will primarily affect Broadway Street (SR-254) from Turbot Avenue to Queen Street, alongside several side streets including Turbot Avenue, Stanton Avenue, and others. The construction schedule is set from Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm, during which parking will be restricted on the impacted streets. Residents and commuters should prepare for potential travel delays, especially with the onset of the school year, as single lane restrictions may delay school buses and restrict wide load truck traffic on Broadway Street.

UGI has also noted that there will be intermittent interruptions to natural gas service, necessitating access to properties for inspection and equipment relighting. The company emphasizes that weather and working conditions could influence the project's timeline, with final paving and restoration to follow the completion of underground work.

For those considering the switch to natural gas, UGI encourages reaching out for more information. This project underscores UGI Utilities' dedication to upgrading infrastructure to meet the growing demands of its customer base, ensuring both safety and reliability in service delivery.
