Beneath the Bustling City, Pipelines Operate Largely Unnoticed

摘要

In St. Louis, the neighborhood of Compton Heights, with its ornate stone and brick homes, dates back to the late 1800s. In busy Minneapolis, the Beltline is a key artery traversed by hundreds of cars every day. One densely populated area in Las Vegas is packed with restaurants, including a popular Mexican eatery readying to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. All are very different urban settings where gas pipeline construction might take place, each with its own challenges. Within cities where traffic is never-ending, customers are many and patience often comes at a premium, utilities considering pipeline replacement or expansion have to have it all. Great communication, a solid plan, the latest technology and a smart public awareness strategy are paramount to pipeline construction.
