PPSU Pre-construction Activities Begin in San Bruno This Week

On Thursday, September 11 the project contractor, Ranger Pipelines, Inc., will begin pre-construction activities for the Peninsula Pipeline Seismic Upgrade (PPSU) within the SFPUC’s right of way in San Bruno. Work will occur Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and anticipates completing work on Wednesday, September 17.  The contractor will pothole at three locations: Shelter Creek Condominiums, along Whitman Way and near the San Bruno Chinese Church entrance to locate existing underground utilities. Please keep an eye out for intermittent sidewalk closures and traffic changes on Whitman Way.

Beginning in December 2014, the contractor will remove materials, set up the construction staging areas, and install construction fences along the SFPUC right of way to indicate the limits of construction. The installation of the new pipeline across Whitman Way and inside Shelter Creek Condominiums will start in January 2015.

The PPSU project includes the seismic upgrade of three Hetch Hetchy regional water delivery pipelines located in Northern San Mateo County. This project will ensure the pipelines can continue to deliver water to customers after an emergency.
