Columbia Gas to replace 16,000-feet of mainline in Hilltop
Columbia Gas of Ohio will replace 16,000-feet of natural gas mainline in the Richardson Avenue area in late July, which is an investment of $1.8 million. The project area is north of Fremont Street, south of West Broad Street, east of Oakley Avenue and west of Ogden Avenue. The project replaces existing steel pipe with specially designed plastic pipe. This will benefit 800 customers and scheduled to be completed in November. Information will be distributed at a public meeting from 6:30-7:30 p.m. on July 24 at the Hilltop Lutheran Church, 12 S. Terrace Ave. Columbia Gas representatives answer questions for residents. The construction requires a temporary interruption of natural gas service. Impacted customers will be contacted via letter in advance. Columbia Gas will make personal contact with customers prior to shutting off service and to schedule service restoration. Customers with indoor meters will have them moved outside so entry to the home is no longer needed to read the meter. This will be done at no additional cost. As a reminder, all Columbia Gas employees and contractors carry identification cards bearing their name, photograph and identification number and will show it. Work will be done on the following streets: - West Broad Street (between Ogden Avenue and Terrace Avenue). - Pomola Avenue (to about 100-feet east of Oakley Avenue). - Burgess Avenue (from about 200-feet south of West Broad Street to Fremont Street). - Palmetto Street (to about 100-feet east of Oakley Avenue). - Plum Street (to about 100-feet east of Oakley Avenue). - Richardson Avenue (from about 200-feet south of West Broad Street to Palmetto Street). - Oakley Avenue (from about 200-feet south of West Broad Street to about 150-feet north of Logan Street). - Apple Street (to about 100-feet east of Oakley Avenue). - Ray Street (to about 100-feet east of Oakley Avenue). - Terrace Avenue (between West Broad Street and Palmetto Street). - Eureka Avenue (from about 200-feet south of West Broad Street to Fremont Street). - Louden Avenue (to about 100-feet east of Oakley Avenue). - Ogden Avenue (from West Broad Street to Fremont Street). - Wayne Avenue (from about 200-feet south of West Broad Street to Fremont Street).
