What will CenterPoint Energy do?

From 2023 into 2025, CenterPoint Energy has been and will continue to replace natural gas lines in the Bryant, Regina, Field, Northrop, and Page Neighborhoods. The pipes used in these pipeline replacement and modernization projects are more resistant to corrosion and leakage, helping us continue to provide the safe, reliable service you count on that keeps you comfortable in your home. The schedule below is tentative and subject to change due to budget, weather, and crew availability:

• Summer 2024 (Northrop): From Monday, July 22 into early August, the crews will replace small-diameter natural gas plastic mains, move inside meters outside, and replace and/or reconnect service lines to the new mains. They will work along the following streets:
  • 43rd Street E. from Chicago Avenue S. to 10th Avenue S.
  • 44th Street E. from Chicago Avenue S. to 10th Avenue S.
  • 46th Street E. from Columbus Avenue S. to 13th Avenue S.
  • 10th Avenue S. from 43rd Street E. to 44th Street E. ​
• Summer 2024 (Regina, Field, and Bryant): From Monday, July 29 into September, the crews will remove and replace a large-diameter steel main on Columbus Avenue from 41st to 48th Streets E. They will install an underground vault at the intersection of Columbus Avenue S. and 48th Street E.
• Late summer or early fall 2024 (Regina): For a few months in late summer or early fall 2024, the crews will replace a small-diameter plastic main, move inside meters outside by appointment, and transfer the service lines to the new main in the Town Oaks Townhomes between 43rd Street E. and 44th Street E. and between 3rd Avenue S. and 4th Avenue S.
• Fall 2024 (Page): For several months this fall or next year, this work is anticipated on Columbus Avenue from Minnehaha Creek to 54th Street E. The crews will replace a small-diameter plastic main, move inside meters outside by appointment, and transfer the service lines to the new main.
• Spring and summer 2025 (Field and Page): This work is anticipated on Columbus Avenue from 48th to 54th Streets E. The crews will remove and replace a large-diameter steel gas main. Although Columbus Avenue S. is anticipated to be the crews’ primary replacement corridor, they may seek realigning the Minnehaha Creek crossing on a different street.  

There will be no assessment or cost associated with our work.
