Project Description
There is a future project that will replace the existing Bay Bridge Pump Station located on Coast Highway between the Bay Bridge (east of Dover Drive) and Bayside Drive in the City of Newport Beach. The project will also replace the pressurized pipes, also referred to as force mains, consisting of two parallel pipelines which carry wastewater across the lower Newport Bay Channel. Wastewater then makes it way to OC San’s Treatment Plant No. 2 in Huntington Beach.
Project Background
The Bay Bridge Pump Station was originally constructed in 1966 and is over 50 years old. The force mains are also over 50 years old. These critical assets are reaching the end of their useful life and need to be replaced to ensure they are reliable for the next 50 years. The new facility will be built to current structural and safety codes, making it safe and reliable to workers and the public.
More information about the project can be found in the Q & A section.
