UGI Utilities to Upgrade Gas Service Line in Nanticoke, Affecting Seven Customers

UGI Utilities, Inc. will begin replacing a natural gas service line on East Main Street in Nanticoke starting Tuesday, September 23, 2025. The work at 71-73 East Main Street is scheduled to last two days, with operations running from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily. This infrastructure upgrade forms part of UGI's broader commitment to maintaining safe and reliable energy delivery systems throughout its service territory.

During the service line replacement process, seven customer meters will be relocated from interior positions to exterior locations. This transition will necessitate a temporary interruption to natural gas service for affected customers. UGI technicians will require property access to inspect equipment and perform relighting procedures once service is restored. The company emphasizes that these measures are essential for ensuring long-term system integrity and customer safety.

UGI has implemented specific strategies to minimize disruption to the area's recent beautification project. Crews will utilize techniques involving smaller pavement cuts to access existing service lines and install new infrastructure. Temporary restoration will follow completion of underground work, with final restoration scheduled for a later date using methods that create seamless bonds between new and existing asphalt surfaces.
