Northern Gas Networks to carry out essential upgrade work to maintain a safe and reliable gas supply in Harrogate

Northern Gas Networks (NGN), the gas distributor for the North of England, is carrying out essential work to ensure the continued safe and reliable supply of gas to customers in Starbeck, Harrogate.

The ageing metal pipework is being upgraded to ensure a safe and reliable supply of gas to customers now while getting the network ready to transport alternative greener fuels in future.

Work will begin on Monday 16th September and is scheduled to take 20 weeks until Spring 2025 to complete and has been planned in collaboration with North Yorkshire Council.

So that engineers can carry out the work safely and efficiently, and to protect the public, some temporary traffic management will be put in place.

Phase 1 will begin on Hillbank Grove, Hillbank Road and Maple Street area then moving onto High Street (A59) from Monday 14th October.

A road closure on Bogs Lane at the Junction of High Street (A59) from Monday 14th October for 3 weeks until Monday 4th November.

Footpath closures and temporary traffic lights on Harrogate Road (A59) from Monday 27th October for 5 weeks until Sunday 24th November.

Phase 2 will commence in the new year to complete the remaining work, returning to High Street moving along the A59 towards Knaresborough completing at Mother Shipton’s Cave with footpath closures and temporary traffic lights on Harrogate Road (A59)

Mark Mawhood, Operations Manager for Northern Gas Networks, said: “We would like to apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused during these essential works. However, it is vital we complete them in order to continue to maintain a safe and reliable gas supply to the residents of Harrogate.

“We want to assure residents and road users that we will be working hard to complete this essential scheme as safely and as quickly as possible.”
