Project Background
The Sunset Plaza Drive Pipeline Replacement Project is a water system infrastructure improvement project that will replace approximately 1.2 miles of pipeline along Sunset Plaza Drive. The pipe is over 92 years old and needs to be replaced to improve water system reliability and enhance fire protection in the area.
LADWP crews will replace existing pipe with 6 and 8-inch steel pipe along Sunset Plaza Drive, Forest Knoll Drive, Sunset Plaza Terrace, Evanview Drive, and Viewsite Drive.
Construction Hours
Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Water service will not be interrupted during construction
Construction Schedule
Construction begins March 2020 and is scheduled to be completed by April 2021.
To minimize impact to the community, the project will be done in three phases:
Traffic and Access Information
Construction at each phase will happen in sections to help reduce impacts to parking and access. Construction will require road closures at each section during work hours. LADWP crews will work in manageable sections that can be covered at the end of each work day to open the road to traffic outside of work hours.
Local access during construction will be provided to residents and delivery personnel. Electronic message boards and traffic control will be in place throughout the project. Fire and emergency access will be maintained at all times.
Project Benefits
- Replace Aging Infrastructure
- Enhance Fire Protection
- Improve water system reliability and flexibility
