Attn Bowling Green ‼️

BOWLING GREEN UTILITY UPDATE - Northern Pipeline (on behalf of Columbia Gas) will continue to work in the Bowling Green area throughout the spring, summer, and coming fall to replace infrastructure that has reached its useful life. You may have noticed the hundreds of small flags throughout the area, marking the underground utility lines. This has been done using the best available information - unfortunately, some of the lines in that area pre-date the information we have. Despite the best efforts of all involved, this has led to occasional disruptions to utility services. We recognize this can be extremely frustrating but we are requesting your patience with this major project. Please know that everyone involved with this effort is doing all that we can to avoid impacts to underground utilities.
