What will CenterPoint Energy do?

For several weeks starting in fall 2024, CenterPoint Energy’s authorized contractors will work in the Fulton and the Kenny Neighborhoods in Minneapolis to upgrade portions of CenterPoint’s natural gas infrastructure. The crews will work along Zenith Avenue S. between 49th Street W. and 52nd Street W.

The pipes used in our 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.

Equix Integrity updates our records on the locations of sewer lines in relation to natural gas lines. Michels Corporation will replace the natural gas plastic mains, move inside meters to the outside of homes by appointment, and replace and/or reconnect natural gas service lines to the new mains. Q3 Contracting will restore the areas affected by Michels’s work. There will be no assessment or cost associated with our work. Although traffic plans are to be determined, please expect parking closures.

The crew plans to bore the main underneath the east sidewalk from 49th Street W. to 50th Street W. and under the west sidewalk from 50th Street W. to 52nd Street W.
