UGI Utilities is set to begin system upgrades in Berwick on Monday, August 17, 2026. The natural gas main replacement is part of UGI’s commitment to provide safe and reliable service and is an opportunity for some residents and businesses to convert to natural gas.
Work is expected to be completed by mid-September and impact the following streets:
Broad Street between Summerhill Avenue and Fowler Avenue
Summerhill Avenue between Walnut Street and Broad Street
Walnut Street between Summerhill Avenue and East 16th Street
Lincoln Avenue between Broad Street and East 16th Street
Intersection of Broad Street and Franklin Street
Salem Street between Broad Street and Duval Street
Construction is scheduled Monday through Friday, between the hours of 7:00am and 5:00pm. Drivers should expect lane and parking restrictions. There will be some interruptions to natural gas service that will require UGI to have access to properties to inspect and relight equipment.
Weather and working conditions may have an impact on the completion date. After underground work is complete, final paving and restoration will occur later.
UGI encourages anyone interested in converting to natural gas to contact the company at 800-276-2722 or gasconversion@ugi.com.
