The following is a news release from Atmos Energy:

Atmos Energy will perform maintenance and construction work on a natural gas pipeline located at the intersection of 82nd & Frankford Avenue beginning Monday, October 22nd. The project is estimated to be completed within six weeks.

Atmos Energy worked with the city of Lubbock Public Works and Traffic Engineering to determine the safest route for traffic flow around the construction area. In order to keep the workers and public safe, the following changes will take effect for the duration of the project:

  • Speed limits will be reduced to 35 MPH
  • Road closures at 80th & Frankford and 82nd & Englewood.
  • Left turns will not be allowed at the intersection of 82nd & Frankford. Left turning traffic will be required to follow detours through the surrounding neighborhoods utilizing other traffic signals.

Atmos Energy is committed to being the safest provider of natural gas service. We appreciate the resident’s understanding while we safely work on this project.
