Wales & West Utilities has completed work to upgrade gas pipes in the Newport Road area of Caldicot.

The work, which started at the end of June, was essential to keep the gas flowing safely to heat and power local homes and businesses.

Wales & West Utilities liaised with Monmouthshire County Council to plan the work, which involved traffic management in the area.

Wales & West Utilities Adam Smith is managing this gas pipe upgrade work. He said:

We’re happy to have finished this work and want to thank everyone who lives and works in the area for bearing with us while we completed this essential work.

While most of the gas network is underground and out of sight, it plays a central role in the daily lives of people across Caldicot. Whether it’s heating your home, making the family dinner or having a hot bath, we understand how important it is for your gas supply to be safe and reliable and there when you need it.

This work was essential to keep the gas flowing to local homes and businesses today, and to make sure the gas network is ready to transport hydrogen and biomethane, so we can all play our part in a green future.
