Gas Network Upgrade – Madeira Road, Littlestone
We’re preparing to carry out essential gas network upgrades in Madeira Road, Littlestone.
This will ensure a continued safe and reliable supply of gas is delivered to nearby homes and businesses. This is part of our 30-year programme of work to replace our old mains, reaching the end of their useful lives, with new, reliable plastic pipe.
Our contractor, Progas Utilities, who are completing this project on our behalf, will be starting work in the week beginning 22 April. We expect this project to last for approximately six to seven weeks.
We’re writing to residents and other local stakeholders to explain the details of this work. This letter can be shared with anyone you feel may have an interest in our work.
We understand roadworks can be frustrating. However, the new plastic pipe has a lifespan of 80 years. This means that once our work is done, Littlestone residents and businesses will be able to enjoy the benefits of a safe and reliable supply of gas for many years to come.
