This project will take place in the Mission Hills, Uptown, Hillcrest, University Heights and North Park areas of San Diego, with work occurring in phases at particular locations along the alignment of the project.
HERE'S WHAT'S HAPPENING:
As a part of the City of San Diego project replacing the water mains servicing your community, construction on Washington Street, at Dove Street, will start at 9 p.m. on Monday night, March 21, 2016** to install a new water main.
The work in this area will continue for approximately 2-3 weeks through April 2016** and will include water main and service connections and paving.
Please note: the contractor will return to this area in the near future to perform additional improvements including pedestrian curb-raps, slurry seal and stripping.
**Special note: If rain occurs prior to a scheduled construction activity, the work will take place on the next dry day. If there is a change of schedule, you will receive a door hanger notice about 24 hours in advance with the new schedule.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while work progresses on this project. Every provision will be taken to quickly and efficiently complete the work.

This Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project will replace about four miles of old, deteriorating, cast iron water mains with new Polyvinyl-Chloride (PVC) pipes. PVC pipes offer improved service reliability and a longer service life. Improvements also include new valves, fire hydrants and installation of curb ramps that facilitate access for persons with disabilities. In addition, streets that have been excavated as part of this work will be slurry sealed as phases are completed. Any areas of vegetation or landscaping that are affected will be replaced. Construction of this infrastructure project is expected to last about three years.
