SIX months of works to upgrade part of the gas network in an area in Rhyl will begin in the new year.
This will take place in Rhuddlan Road from January 2.
Wales & West Utilities said the work is "essential" to keep the gas flowing safely and reliably to homes and businesses and that "barring any engineering difficulties", work will finish during June.
Wales & West Utilities has liaised with Denbighshire County Council and it has been agreed that rolling road closures and traffic lights will be in place as the works progress.
Adam Smith, of Wales & West Utilities who is managing this gas pipe upgrade work, said: “While most of the gas network is underground and out of sight, it plays a central role in the daily lives of people across Rhyl. Whether it’s heating your home, making the family dinner or having a hot bath, we understand how important it is for your gas supply to be safe and reliable and there when you need it.

“We know that working in areas like this is not ideal, but it really is essential to make sure we keep the gas flowing to homes and businesses in the area, and to make sure the gas network is fit for the future.
"We’ll have a team of gas engineers on site throughout the project to make sure our work is completed as safely and as quickly as possible while keeping disruption to a minimum.
“This work is essential to keep the gas flowing to local homes and businesses today, and to make sure the gas network is ready to transport hydrogen and biomethane, so we can all play our part in a green future.”
