UGI Utilities is scheduled to begin system upgrades in Jersey Shore Borough, Lycoming County on Monday, July 20, 2026. The work is part of UGI’s commitment to provide safe and reliable service and is an opportunity for some homes and businesses along the project route to convert to natural gas.
The installation of the new natural gas main is expected to be completed by the end of July and impact Thompson Street between Howard Street and Kerr Avenue.
Construction is scheduled Monday through Friday, between the hours of 7:00am and 5:00pm. Drivers will experience traffic and parking restrictions during construction hours in the area of the Geisinger Jersey Shore Hospital and Jersey Shore Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. 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.
