Metropolitan Water District of Southern California

Orange County Feeder Relining Project

The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California is making key improvements to the Orange County Feeder, a major pipeline in the regional water system. This project is necessary to ensure that we continue to provide reliable water supplies to our 26 member public agencies serving 19 million people. Work will occur along Bristol Street from Raymar Street to Anton Boulevard. Water supply to homes and businesses will not be affected. Improvements began in mid-February and will continue until fall 2019.

The project requires lane closures and traffic will be impacted throughout the project limits. We recognize that this project takes place in an area with shopping centers, schools, residents, and commercial properties. We are committed to ensuring that you stay connected to all construction activities in your community.

Mejoras a largo de la calle Bristol en Santa Ana y Costa mesa llegaran a mediados de febrero

Metropolitan Water District of Southern California hará mejoras clave en el Orange County Feeder, un mayor oleoducto en el sistema de agua regional.

Este proyecto es necesario para asegurar un suministro confiable de agua y para continuar proporcionando agua a nuestras 26 agencias locales de agua que atienden a 19 millones de personas. El trabajo ocurrirá a lo largo de la calle Bristol desde la calle Bishop hasta bulevar Anton. Este proyecto requiere el cierre de carriles y el tráfico será afectado. El proyecto comenzará a mediados de febrero y continuará hasta fines de agosto. 

El suministro de agua no será afectado.
