Project Description 

Installation of approximately 2,200 feet of 8-inch welded steel pipe to replace leak prone 1953 6-inch cast iron pipe that crosses beneath Highway 101. This project is to improve fireflow and seismic reliability of the system in this area. 

Benefits

The benefit of this project is to replace and relocate old leak prone, seismically deficient pipe from beneath Hwy 101 onto a freeway over pass, which will improve accessibility for maintenance and improve fire flow and seismic resiliency of the system and eliminate the impact to traffic on Hwy 101.
