LOCATION: Western Ave. between Tyler Ave. to Del Monte Dr.

Construction continues on the rehabilitation of the regional sewer pipe on Western Ave. This activity requires excavation, shoring installation, and dewatering to safely perform the work. A bypass system is also necessary to reroute the sewer to maintain uninterrupted sewer service to the community. This operation is complex which prolongs the amount of time needed to perform the work. Consecutive day and night work will be necessary for a portion of the schedule to complete the work.

LOCATION: Orange Avenue between Knott Ave and Western Ave.

The sewer pipe is being replaced along a portion of Orange Ave. Bypass pumps are required to reroute the sewer flow to allow for the repair to be completed without interrupting service to the community. This specific activity requires the use of both permanent and temporary traffic control to successfully complete the work. This will reduce traffic lanes and impact street parking until the work is completed.

  • When: Ongoing – October 2023*
  • Work Hours: Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. – 9 p.m.
  • Impacts: Lane reductions and parking restrictions.

LOCATION: Orange Avenue at Knott Ave. and Western Ave.

OC San’s regional sewer project on Orange Ave. is wrapping up.
