Construction on the Orange Western Trunk Sewer Project continues on Western Avenue in Buena Park and Anaheim. Currently most of the work is occurring at night when sewer flows are lower.

On Thursday, March 17 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. crews will be working at the intersection of Western Avenue and Crescent Avenue in Buena Park to repair the manhole. This will require lane closures and left turn restrictions in every direction.  No thru traffic for westbound travel on Crescent Ave. Please see map below for details.
