What is the crews’ progress?

Natural gas main work

A crew from Michels Corporation, a CenterPoint Energy authorized contractor, has been installing a natural gas main under the east sidewalk of Upton Avenue S. They anticipate finishing the installation between Chestnut Avenue and Laurel Avenue by Monday, August 12.

On Tuesday, August 13, pending weather and the crew’s progress, the crew plans to start installing the main under the east sidewalk of Thomas Avenue S. at Chestnut Avenue, working south to Laurel Avenue.

On the blocks where the crew is installing the gas main, they will close parking on both sides of the road to help traffic travel through. Parking will be closed from Mondays to Fridays from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
