What is the crew’s progress?
CenterPoint Energy’s authorized contractors are working on Projects 1 and 2 of 3 in the Armatage Neighborhood.
Project 1: Crews from Q3 Contracting are restoring the areas affected by natural gas work in fall and winter of 2023. Permanent restoration will include the original condition (concrete or asphalt) of the hard surfaces affected, and it will include black dirt, grass seed, and biodegradable netting on boulevards and lawns. The netting degrades over about four months.
This April and May, the crews have been and will continue to work in Minneapolis and other cities in CenterPoint Energy’s service territory in Minnesota to restore the areas affected by natural gas work of fall and winter 2023. We thank you for your patience!
Project 2 (map below): Crews from Michels Corporation are replacing the small-diameter natural gas plastic main and are beginning to move inside meters outside by appointment and replace and/or reconnect natural gas service lines to this new main.
The plastic main replacement will continue into the week of April 29. The crew put new main under the east sidewalk of Upton Avenue S. between 55th Street W. and 58th Street W. and the south sidewalk of 58th Street W. between Xerxes Avenue S. and Upton Avenue S. They’ll put new main under the south sidewalk of 54th Street W. from Upton Avenue S. to 2619 54th Street W.
The service line and meter crew are following the main crew’s route and anticipate working into late May. For more information on what to expect, please visit the project’s web page here.
Q3 Contracting will follow Michels Corporation’s work. Typically, restoration begins a few weeks after the natural gas service line and meter work is finished. We appreciate your patience!
