0913 Gas Line Map Hollywood
A map of the streets in Hollywood shows where Alagasco will continue to replace both the main and service gas lines through September. Image courtesy of Alagasco.Utility construction in Hollywood is expected to wrap up by the end of this month, but some work could stretch into October.
According to Ashley Mitchell, business manager for pipeline risk management with Alagasco, the company is replacing its main pipeline on several roads in the neighborhood, as well as its service pipelines to 240 homes.
The work, being conducted by Miller Pipeline Corporation, entails redirecting gas flow from the original pipeline to the new pipelines. According to Alagasco, when this process occurs, residents’ gas meters will be disconnected from the original pipeline and connected to the new pipeline as well.
During the process, gas to the residence will be turned off. To restore service, Mitchell said Alagasco technicians will relight all pilot lights in the home and check each appliance for safe operation.
Mitchell said Alagasco’s goal was to complete all work on Hollywood Boulevard before school resumed in August. Contractors would then move to complete work on side streets, install new service lines and return service to homes.
“Overall, we’re just upgrading our system and making sure it’s safe,” she said.
