SoCalGas crews are expected to work in the area for approximately 16 weeks

WHAT: SoCalGas will be performing pipeline replacement work along West Verdugo Ave. in between Orchard Dr. and North Reese Pl. in the City of Burbank. Work is scheduled to begin Monday, October 5 and is expected to continue through January 2021.
