Current and Upcoming Projects:
Azahar/Cadencia Pipeline Replacements
Repairs to water infrastructure are underway in the area of Cadencia Street, Aldea Place, and Romeria Street.
OMWD’s Board of Directors has unanimously approved allocating $4,350,000 to this pipeline replacement effort. This will allow us to install new water mains not only on Azahar Street and Cadencia Street, but also on Aldea Place and portions of Romeria Street.
As part of the pipeline replacement effort, OMWD will install additional fire hydrants in select locations, and the new pipelines will be larger in diameter, both of which will better protect homes in this area in the event of fires.
Overall, it will take several weeks to install all of the new pipelines. For the duration of construction, only brief water service interruptions are anticipated (15-30 minutes) to switch the water service for affected homes between temporary above-ground water lines and the permanent water main.
Week of January 26: On Monday, OMWD is planning to begin paving Cadencia Street, Aldea Place, and Romeria Street, weather permitting. No work is scheduled for Friday.
Week of February 2: OMWD is planning to continue paving Cadencia Street, Aldea Place, and Romeria Street, weather permitting.
Crews on-site will be able to assist customers with driveway access, if needed. For weekly trash collection, customers should continue to put out their trash bins at the curb and OMWD will move them to and from the appropriate location for pick up, if necessary.
Customers with questions about the project are invited to call 760-753-6466.
