OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – Kansas Gas Service are beginning the replacement of natural gas distribution main and service pipelines in Hutchinson.
The work will take place east of Main Street along Avenue F up to S. Plum.
This project is expected to be completed in approximately two and a half months, weather permitting. Company officials do not anticipate any major interruption to traffic flow, though access to alleys may be impacted.
“This project is a part of our regularly scheduled maintenance plan and is a system-improvement program,” said Tim Cox, manager of community relations for Kansas Gas Service.
Customers affected by these projects will be notified by NPL, the contractor assisting Kansas Gas Service, or by notice left at their home or business. The contractors performing the work will carry photo identification badges that identify them as working on behalf of Kansas Gas Service.
