Ameren Illinois plans to undertake a $3 million natural-gas pipeline improvement project on the west and southwest sides of Champaign beginning in March 2023.
The project will involve upgrading about 4.2 miles of pipeline that dates back to the 1960s and natural-gas services for about 430 customers, with corrosion-resistant polyethylene materials replacing the older steel.
The work to be done by KS Energy will extend through spring and summer and into the fall, with the completion date depending on the weather, according to Ameren.
