Residents in the Jordan West neighborhood might have noticed the increased presence of construction crews lately. This uptick is part of CenterPoint Energy's initiative to enhance the safety and reliability of the natural gas distribution system in the area. As crews dig into the work, they are systematically replacing gas mains, service lines, and meters—an essential step in modernizing the infrastructure. With multiple teams in action, one group can be seen progressing south on Sheridan Avenue North from Lowry Avenue North, while another is wrapping things up in the northern parts of Upton, Vincent, and Washburn Avenues North before heading south next week.
According to a bulletin published by CenterPoint Energy, the service work is expected to continue for several more weeks, especially in the southern portion of the project zone. The company has urged any customer who has been contacted by a CenterPoint employee or one of its contractors to "reach out and set up a time to have your meter moved." As the project draws closer to completion, it's critical for residents to ensure that their homes are connected to the new mains.
The company extended its thanks to the community for their patience and understanding during this period of significant infrastructure replacement. "We value the privilege of having you as a customer," the statement concluded. Residents who might be facing disruptions or have concerns can find further information about the construction process and the impact on the area by visiting CenterPoint Energy's website.
