Wales & West Utilities has completed essential work to upgrade gas pipes in Ross-on-Wye.
The work, in the Brookend Street area of the town, started at the beginning of the year and was completed in two phases.
The work was essential to keep the gas flowing safely and reliably to local homes and businesses, keeping people warm for generations to come.
Wales & West Utilities Mick Gallavin managed this gas pipe upgrade work and said:
“We are pleased to finish this work and would like to thank the local community for bearing with us as we carried out this work.
“While most of the gas network is underground and out of sight, it plays a central role in the daily lives of people across Ross-on-Wye.
“Whether it’s heating your home, making the family dinner or having a hot bath, we understand how important it is for your gas supply to be safe and reliable and there when you need it.
“This work was essential to keep the gas flowing to local homes and businesses today, and to make sure the gas network is ready to transport hydrogen and biomethane, so we can all play our part in a green future.”
Wales & West Utilities, the gas emergency and pipeline service, brings energy to 7.5m people across the south west of England and Wales.
