KAWARTHA LAKES-Enbridge Gas we will be replacing the natural gas pipelines on certain streets in Lindsay beginning this month.
Officials anticipate construction will begin mid-October 2021, for approximately twelve weeks. Work will occur between 7 am and 5 pm. Work could be rescheduled or delayed due to weather or unforeseen circumstances.
What to Expect
- They will be completing the work one block at a time.
- Residents and businesses near the work site can expect to hear noise caused by construction equipment, and there may also be dirt or dust.
- Building and sidewalk access will be maintained, and we will help manage pedestrian and vehicle traffic where necessary.
- Parking near the work site will be limited, and signage will be posted with any detours.
- Final restorations will take place in spring 2022
Service Impacts
- To complete the installation there will be a temporary interruption to your natural gas service (likely 3- 4 hours). We will notify you ahead of time so you can prepare for the interruption.
- Our crews will go door-to-door to restore service at each building.
- If your equipment/appliances do not meet safety standards, you’ll need to have them serviced before we can restore natural gas service.
How to Prepare
- After you receive notification of your service interruption, please clear the area around your natural gas appliances. We will need access to relight your equipment when restoring service.
- If you haven’t had your appliances inspected or serviced in a while, it’s a good time to do that now. We can’t relight your equipment if it’s not compliant with safety standards.
