Project Purpose
The Clean Water Improvements project will be installing linings in sewer lines in multiple areas across the UC San Diego Campus. This work will extend the life and improve the functionality of existing sewer lines. The sewer line improvements are to be completed during the month of February 2023 in each of the areas noted below.
Location and Duration
The work will be completed in multiple stages at each location. The work includes sewer line sleeve installations, followed by sealant rings, and lastly the lining of sewer manholes.
The locations below are anticipated to require multiple days of work (approximately one to two days per work activity).
- Villa La Jolla Drive: north of the VA Hospital intersection extending south to La Jolla Village Drive
- Gilman Dr/Gilman Parking Structure: bottom floor and walkway area north of the structure
- Matthews Lane/Library Walk: near the Price Center Drop-off Loop, and a small area in front of Geisel Library
- Access road: between RIMAC/San Diego Supercomputer Center
- Theatre District Drive/Eucalyptus Grove Lane: East of Mayer Hall and the Central Utilities Plant
- La Jolla Shores Drive, Downwind Way: near Revelle Laboratory
Immediate Effects: Parking Lot, Street Traffic, and Pedestrians
- Pedestrian impacts are anticipated intermittently at specific locations. Detour signage will be supplied.
- In high-traffic areas where roadway impacts are required, night work will be prioritized.
- Traffic control measures will be in place to safely guide vehicles and pedestrians through or around each area.
- Sewer bypassing will be required at each location.
- Non-toxic odors may be present in the areas immediately surrounding the work areas as the liner cures.
- Please anticipate limited generator noise at each location.
For everyone's safety, please adhere to traffic control signage directions and flag persons' instructions while traveling through the area.
