​Natural gas line upgrades in Braham - Project updates


4/23/2025

Construction continues in Braham, with a crew working to install sections of modern gas main. For the next few days, work is being done on Elmhurst Avenue North and 4th Street Northwest. The crew will move to Cherry Avenue North next. We expect main installation to be complete by the end of next week.


A service crew is also in the area, replacing and connecting service lines to the new main. Their work is scattered across the work zone.

Natural gas construction updates

For a few months beginning this April, CenterPoint Energy will replace natural gas infrastructure in Braham. Updates regarding the utility crew's location, traffic impacts and other details will be posted here regularly.


Before construction begins, an authorized contractor will be in the area to locate sewer lines in relation to natural gas lines. This is an important safety measure CenterPoint is required to take. It is possible a technician performing this work will need to access your home to locate sewer lines. Ask to see CenterPoint Energy identification before letting anyone in your home.
