Day work is coming to the Los Alamitos Trunk Sewer project.

 

Construction work is set to begin on Oak Street in the City of Los Alamitos the week of June 13. Daywork will begin with potholing to identify underground utilities.  Once that is completed, four manholes along Oak St. from Sausalito Street to Katella Avenue will be rehabilitated. To perform the work, we will need to install steel beams for the shoring and excavate the area around the manholes. Traffic control will be required around the construction zone.
