Project Update

Daly City
The pipeline installation broke ground in Daly City in October 2009. Open trench work has been completed along Sheffield Drive from Wilshire to John Daly Blvd., with some landscaping and re-paving work remaining. Crews are installing the new pipeline inside Lake Merced Golf Course, and will continue south to the San Pedro Valve Lot in spring and summer 2010.
For more information about construction in Daly City, see the Daly City Construction Notice below.

Work hours for Daly City construction areas are Monday through Friday from 7:00AM - 5:00PM.

San Francisco

The SFPUC’s contractor, Mountain Cascade, Inc., is steadily making progress at Junipero Serra Blvd. and Holloway, with rain periodically interrupting work.
Nearby on Eucalyptus Drive, the contractor’s crew is digging a trench to install 36” diameter steel pipe just west of the existing bore pit located at the intersection of Eucalyptus and 19th Avenue. The crew will be heading westbound along Eucalyptus to 22nd Avenue to install the pipe. Later this year, the installation will turn northbound up 22nd Avenue, terminating near Sloat Blvd. at the Merced Manor Reservoir.

For more information about construction in San Francisco, see the San Francisco Construction Notice below.

Work hours for the next few weeks starting around April 17th in San Francisco construction areas are Saturday through Sunday from 8:00AM - 5:00PM.

Project Description
The San Andreas Pipeline No. 3 (SAPL3) Project alignment runs from the San Pedro Valve Lot in Daly City near Highway 1 to the Merced Manor Reservoir in San Francisco’s Sunset District. The new pipeline will provide water from the Hetch Hetchy regional system to customers in both cities, and will provide the infrastructure redundancy needed for a secure water supply. Redundancy allows the SFPUC to redirect the flow of water for routine maintenance, and to keep the water flowing to taps after an earthquake or other emergency.
The original pipeline constructed along this route was built in the late 1800’s. This project is part of the $4.6 billion Water System Improvement Program to repair, replace, and seismically upgrade the regional water system.
