Manheim Township residents can expect significant traffic modifications as UGI Utilities, Inc. initiates a critical gas main replacement project along Pleasure Road. Beginning March 10, the infrastructure upgrade will span from McGrann Boulevard to Crest Lane, with work scheduled Monday through Friday between 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
The project represents an essential infrastructure maintenance effort designed to enhance the safety and reliability of the natural gas distribution system. Drivers should anticipate substantial traffic pattern changes during the construction period. Westbound traffic will remain open, while eastbound vehicles will be detoured via Grandview Boulevard and McGrann Boulevard. Local residents may also encounter parking restrictions along the project's route.
Construction timelines remain flexible, with potential weather and working condition variations potentially affecting the projected month-long completion schedule. The strategic roadwork underscores UGI Utilities' commitment to maintaining and modernizing critical energy infrastructure serving Lancaster County's growing community.
This infrastructure investment is particularly significant for the approximately 760,000 customers served by UGI Utilities, highlighting the ongoing efforts to maintain safe and efficient utility services. Residents are advised to plan alternative routes and anticipate potential travel disruptions during the construction period.
