William’s Pipeline work digs on

by John Lauber on July 3, 2009

As I stated in this prior post, I’m one of those homeowners affected by the Williams Pipeline project. At the time of that post they had not begun work behind me. While they haven’t started digging behind me, they certainly have been driving along the pipeline, building a temporary “road” using railroad ties. I find the process very interesting.

They have begun digging in the field adjacent to my development. We’ve seen them bringing out the old pipes and, while not underground yet, placing the new pipes along the line. I can say for myself, that while we certainly see and hear the work, it has not been too much trouble. Of course, they’ll be digging sometime this month directly behind and my opinion may change.

Here’s one more picture of the work.

I live in Chester County (E.Fallowfield) and am working on this project.I have done this type of work for 20 years and can say that when we are done with the project things will look a little different than before, but the properties affected will be restored to a degree that will definately impress you. We did a very similar project in the Doylestown area in 07 and I would suggest that anyone who has concerns along these lines take a ride to that area and see for themselves the "after" aspect of one of these jobs. While the workers are not given specific information as to the names of landowners it was rumored that we crossed the properties of some high profile people, and there were concerns before the project and praise after the job was done. I would ask for patience while the work is being done and I'm sure that those affected will be impressed with the final results.

Thank you George for your input. I had to laugh about "high profile", as I am anything but that. :) I was simply putting the information out there. I have no problems with any of the work that has been occurring so far and look forward to the completion of the project.

Again, thank you for your input.
