Update 1/6/2023:

S. 13th Street – M.U.D. crews have completed installation of the new gas main and continue prep work for the reconnection of homes to the new main. Scheduling appointments for the reconnection work is important so work can proceed to completion. We must have all gas services switched to the new main before taking the old main out of service. We appreciate your cooperation as crews continue to complete work in S. 13th Street.

S. 15th Street – M.U.D. technician(s) will be soon be locating utilities in this street. Flags will be placed in yards – for the safety of everyone, please do not remove these flags. After work is completed in S. 13th Street, crews will move to S. 15th Street and install new gas main only. This work will not require access to the homes.
