£30,000 upgrade to gas network at Mill Lane, York

The North of England’s gas distributer, Northern Gas Networks (NGN), is investing around £30,000 to upgrade ageing gas mains in Mill Lane, York.

This essential project is part of NGN’s ongoing investment in the gas infrastructure in the area and will involve replacing over 65m of existing metal gas mains with more durable plastic pipes to ensure the continued, safe and reliable supply of gas to customers in York for years to come.

The three-week project, which is due to start on Monday 14 August 2017, has been carefully planned in conjunction with City of York Council.

Due to the location of the gas main and in order to carry out the works safely and efficiently, it will be necessary to close one lane on the east bound slip road on the A64, Askham Bryan. The lane closure will be in place for approximately three weeks.  A signed diversion route will be in place for motorists.

It’s expected these works may cause extended journey times, so customers are advised to allow extra travel time whilst the lane closure is in place.  Engineers from NGN will be working hard to complete these works as soon as possible, and will provide updates on progress throughout the project.

Shops and businesses in the area will remain open as usual.

NGN’s Customer Care Officers will be door-knocking local homes and businesses to make customers aware of the project, while on-site signage will advise motorists of the work taking place.

Robert Hope, Construction Services Area Manager for Northern Gas Networks, said: “We have worked closely with City of York Council to carefully plan these works and will be doing all we can to minimise disruption to customers.

“We will endeavour to complete the project as quickly and safely as possible and will keep customers updated as the work progresses.

“We would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any inconvenience caused during these works and thank everyone for their patience and support while we carry out this essential upgrade.”

For further information about the project please contact NGN’s Customer Care team on 0800 040 7766, option 3 or email customercare@northerngas.co.uk.
