Water Main Replacement Project

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

The City of Brisbane completed Phase 1 of the Fire Main Replacement Project that affected portions of Sierra Point Rd., Humboldt, Annis, and all of Thomas earlier this year.

Construction on Phase 2 of the Fire Main Replacement Project is planned to start in the Fall of 2019.

Water Main Construction

This project will provide much-needed improvements to our City’s aging drinking water infrastructure and will include the replacement of approximately 5,120 linear feet of 6-inch water main with 8- and 10- inch pipe along portions of Annis Road, Harold Road, Kings Road, Margaret Road, and Paul Avenue.  


We will be installing new main line valves, fire hydrants, and water services (above photo taken during Phase 1).  The work is critically important to upgrade our water distribution system infrastructure to meet current state codes and replace aging pipes. This multi-phase project is expected to be completed in 2021.

During construction, there will be full-width road closures to facilitate this work.  We understand that this will be an inconvenience to the residents in the neighborhood, and to limit this impact we will ensure that normal traffic will be resumed at the end of the each work day.  The project will also require temporary water service disruptions.  All impacted residents will be provided advanced notice of these closures and disruptions. 

The City will host a couple of neighborhood meetings to answer questions from community members affected by this project. We will be advertising these meetings on our weekly email blast, so make sure to sign up by visiting: www.tinyurl.com/blast321

Please plan to attend one of these meetings.  We are excited to share the details of this critical work.  We want to listen to your questions and concerns, so that we can do as much as possible to minimize the impacts to your neighborhood.
