UGI Utilities is scheduled to begin system upgrades in Quakertown Borough and Richland Township on Monday, June 22, 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 upgrades are essential for maintaining the integrity of the natural gas infrastructure in these areas. By modernizing the system, UGI aims to reduce the risk of service interruptions and improve overall efficiency. Residents and businesses near the project route may have the chance to connect to natural gas for the first time, which could lead to lower energy costs and a reduced environmental footprint compared to other fossil fuels.
