Northern Gas Networks (NGN), the gas distributor for the North of England, will continue its programme of investment in Hull’s gas infrastructure from Tuesday 28th September, with the next stage of essential upgrade works at Air Street.

The ageing metal pipework is being replaced by new, more durable plastic pipes, to ensure a safe and reliable supply of gas to customers.

The work on Air Street will last for three weeks and is one of several city centre schemes currently being completed, having been planned in close collaboration with Hull City Council.

So that engineers can carry out the work safely and efficiently, and to protect the public, some traffic management measures will be put in place.

Air Street will be closed at the junction with Bank Side for three weeks, with signs displayed for motorists and a full signed diversion put in place.

Russel Kaye, Business Operations Lead for Northern Gas Networks, said: “We would like to apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused during these essential works and thank customers and commuters for their patience while the works take place. However, it is vital we complete them in order to continue to maintain a safe and reliable gas supply to the residents of Hull.

“NGN is continuing to carry out its essential activities while following strict guidelines for safe distance working, where possible, and following good hygiene practices as we continue to live with coronavirus.

“We want to assure residents and road users that we will be working hard to complete this essential scheme as safely and as quickly as possible.”

In the meantime, NGN will suspend its Spring Bank West upgrade project for three weeks from this Friday, to coincide with the return of Hull Fair.

Work will restart on 18th October and continue until mid-December

While all of NGN’s work has now resumed, extra safety precautions remain in place to keep everyone safe while we continue to live with Covid-19.
