CANONSBURG — Natural gas customers in the City of Bradford will soon benefit from a Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania pipeline replacement project.
Columbia Gas will begin in the coming weeks to replace more than 3,900 feet of underground pipe impacting 67 customers on Clarence Street, Congress Street, Jefferson Street, Kane Street, Leland Avenue, Pike Street, Potter Street and Thompson Street. Work is expected to last through late summer, weather permitting, and will take place Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., with temporary lane restrictions possible during working hours.
The construction work will require a temporary interruption of natural gas service for individual customers, while their service is transferred to the new pipe. Columbia Gas will personally contact these customers prior to shutting off service and to schedule service restoration. Customers with indoor meters will also have their meters relocated to the outside of the premises. This work will be completed at no additional cost to the customer.
All company and contract employees carry photo ID badges identifying them as Columbia Gas employees or contractors. Customers are encouraged to ask for ID before allowing anyone into their home, or they can call 1-888-460-4332 for Columbia Gas employee verification.
