Emergency Trunk Sewer Replacement Construction Begins September 2

The City of Escondido is continuing essential work on the Emergency Trunk Sewer Replacement Project (ETSRP) in two new areas starting Tuesday, September 2, 2025. This project addresses a failed sewer line that is critical to the City's wastewater system and includes two construction zones:

๐Ÿ“ East Valley Parkway (Beech St. to Fig St.)

  • Scope: Replacement of approximately 1,930 feet of trunk sewer main.
  • Work Hours: Overnight, from 8:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., Monday through Friday.
  • Purpose: Nighttime work is planned specifically to minimize impacts to daytime traffic and lessen disruption to our local businesses.
  • Traffic Impacts: Expect lane closures (including turn pockets) in both directions on East Valley Parkway.
  • Noise Impacts: Nighttime construction will include heavy equipment, excavation, and truck activity.

๐Ÿ“ North Fig Street (between Washington Ave. and Valley Pkwy)

  • Scope: Removal and replacement of a sewer manhole and installation of a 24-inch sewer pipe.
  • Work Hours: Daily from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with occasional extended or weekend hours.
  • Road Closure: Full 24-hour closure of North Fig Street from September 2 to September 19, 2025.
  • Traffic Detours: Detour signage will be in place for vehicles and pedestrians.

We appreciate the community’s patience as we complete these critical infrastructure improvements.
