​Natural Gas Line Replacements in Savage ​- Project Updates​​​​​​​​​​​​

12/5/2024

The natural gas infrastructure improvement project in Savage was completed on November 22, and restoration of affected roads, sidewalks, boulevards, and lawns is ongoing.


Due to the colder temperatures, crews will perform temporary restoration efforts throughout the early winter with permanent solutions to come in 2025 as weather conditions allow.

Last week, the week of Nov. 4, the construction crew installed the new natural gas main under the east side of Xenwood Avenue. This week, the natural gas main along W. 125th Street will be replaced, and the new main will be installed on the south side of the road. Service line work is ongoing in the area – replacing and reconnecting services lines to the new main. We anticipate gas line construction to wrap up early next week, with restoration to follow.


Due to colder temperatures, lawns and sidewalks may receive temporary restoration for the winter months with the goal of higher quality repairs in the spring and summer of 2025.

What will CenterPoint Energy do?

Beginning the week of Nov. 4, 2024, CenterPoint Energy’s authorized contractors will perform system improvement in Savage, MN for a few weeks. This work will include replacing the plastic natural gas main, replacing and/or reconnecting service lines to the new main, and moving inside meters outside by appointment. Restoration of affected areas will follow construction, trailing approximately 2 weeks behind construction crews. There will be no assessment or cost associated with our work.


Equix Integrity updates our records on the locations of sewer lines in relation to natural gas lines. Michels Corporation will replace a small-diameter natural gas plastic main, move inside meters to the outside of homes by appointment, replace and/or reconnect natural gas service lines to the plastic main, and replace a large-diameter natural gas steel main. Q3 Contracting will restore the areas affected by Michels Corporation’s.
