Taft Avenue Sewer Improvement

Taft Avenue Sewer Improvement Project

All major construction work on the Taft Avenue Sewer Improvement Project is complete, and we want to thank you for your patience, cooperation, and support throughout construction.

Over the course of the project, OC San replaced and upsized nearly two miles of sewer pipeline to increase capacity and improve long-term reliability and maintenance. Work on Meats Ave. is now complete, and all major traffic control has been removed. Crews will continue minor activities along the project alignment through the end of October, so please use caution when traveling through areas where crews are present.

We Want to Hear From You!

As we wrap up the project, your feedback is important to us. Whether you followed our construction updates, contacted the project team, or experienced construction near your home or business, we want to hear about your experience with our communication efforts.

Project Description: 

The Taft Avenue Sewer Improvement Project will replace and relocate a portion of the Taft Sewer in the City of Orange.

This project will upsize almost two miles of pipe along Taft Avenue from Glassell Street to Sacramento Street, northbound on Sacramento Street to Brentford Avenue, to Breckenridge Street to Meats Avenue. The current pipe ranges between 12 to 15 inches and will be upsized to 18 to 21 inches.

A portion of the sewer that currently runs along Tustin Street will be relocated to North Sacramento Street where there is more room to install a larger pipe and facilitates the future maintenance of the pipeline.

Project Schedule: December 2024 – Fall 2026
