The project replaces and constructs nearly three miles of two regional pressurized sewer pipelines (force mains) on Westminster Boulevard between Seal Beach Boulevard and Rancho Road/Hammon Place in the cities of Seal Beach and Westminster. Construction began Spring 2020 and all underground sewer construction work was completed late 2022. Landscape and street restoration will be complete by early 2023.  Â
Construction of the two new sewer pipelines is complete. Restoration activities will continue to take place throughout the project area. Paving occurred in the City of Seal Beach but rain did impact the work starting in the City of Westminster. See the updated paving schedule below.
