Central Hudson plans to replace portions of its natural gas distribution system in the Village of Montgomery as part of a broader infrastructure replacement program in the Mid-Hudson Valley. A public information meeting regarding this project will be held on February 19, 2026 from 5:00–6:00 PM at the Senior Center, hosted by Central Hudson. The meeting will also be live streamed and available for viewing on the Village of Montgomery’s YouTube page.
The project involves replacing sections of existing natural gas main lines located within public streets, as well as service lines that connect to individual homes and businesses. Construction work will be performed by Central Hudson’s contractor, Granholm Construction.
Approximately 8,540 feet of gas lines are scheduled for replacement within the Village. Construction is expected to begin in March and is anticipated to last approximately five to six months, though timelines may vary based on site conditions and weather.
