Columbia Gas Pipeline Replacement Project
Crews will be installing approximately 6,300 feet of new plastic pipe serving roughly 100 properties on sections of W. 130th and Linden Lane in the Middleburg Heights/Parma area.
Timing is as follows:
- Preconstruction work is underway. During this phase, residents may notice markers and flags cropping up in yards. Those are to mark the locations of underground facilities. We kindly ask that everyone keep those in place until the work is complete.
- Installation of the new mainline should begin in late February.
- Once the mainline is installed and put into service, crews will follow-up with service line replacements for individual homes and businesses. These take about 2-4 hours per property and include a brief service disconnection. Indoor meters will be relocated outside as well. A Miller Pipeline employee will reach out to schedule an appointment with each property owner for the shutoff, relight and meter relocation (if necessary).
Restoration crews will temporarily restore all property to ensure safety and accessibility and then follow-up with the permanent grade restoration as the project nears completion.
Please expect some traffic congestion in the work zones – flaggers will be on-hand to get motorists through safely. Work crews will not block resident driveways.
Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding. For questions, concerns, or any other special circumstances Columbia Gas of Ohio should be aware of please Contact:
