Project Overview:
Washington Gas’ construction activities will replace approximately 6.5 miles of a 16-inch diameter natural gas pipeline with a new 24-inch diameter steel pipeline, and could include the installation of regulator stations and the replacement of distribution mains depending on the final layout of the new corridor. Michels, an industry-leading utility contractor, is the construction contractor performing the work.
The entire scope of this project will be within VDOT right-of-way, extending from Leesburg Pike (Route 7) and Bishop Gates Way in Herndon, Virginia, to Leesburg Pike (Route 7) and Tyco Road in McLean, Virginia.
