Wales & West Utilities has initiated a project to upgrade gas pipes in the May Lane area of Dursley, emphasizing the essential nature of the work to ensure the safe and reliable flow of gas to local homes and businesses. The company highlights the significance of this initiative in preparing the gas network to accommodate hydrogen and biomethane, thereby contributing to a more sustainable future. Scheduled to be completed by mid-October, the project involves the implementation of traffic management measures, including multi-way traffic lights and footpath closures, in collaboration with Gloucestershire County Council. Mick Gallavin from Wales & West Utilities stresses the importance of maintaining a safe and resilient gas supply for the community. Despite acknowledging the inconvenience caused by such works, the company underscores the necessity of these upgrades to support both current gas needs and future energy requirements. Throughout the project, a dedicated team of gas engineers will be on-site to ensure the timely and safe completion of the work while minimizing disruptions.
