Manchester Gas Upgrade Heads to Busy Junction | Manchester News

Big gas pipe upgrades are hitting Manchester this summer at the busy junction of Birchfield Road, Anson Road, and Dickenson Road — where some pipes are over 150 years old. Cadent’s $90 million north west investment is part of a 30-year plan to modernize aging infrastructure, slash methane emissions, and future-proof the network for cleaner gases. While work will suspend traffic lights for 4-5 weeks, officials are scheduling it during school holidays to ease congestion — with the goal of finishing before kids return. Commuters brace for longer waits, but these essential upgrades ensure safer, greener gas for the future. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
