Sewer Pipeline Work To Reduce Traffic Lanes At Baldwin Park Intersection For 2 Weeks

BALDWIN PARK, CA — A sewer pipeline rehabilitation project in Baldwin Park is expected to cause traffic delays and lane restrictions for approximately two weeks, city officials announced Monday.

The Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts began work Tuesday, Nov. 3, on a regional-serving, 42-inch sewer pipeline along Francisquito Avenue at its intersection with Puente Avenue, the city said.

The project will reduce traffic on Francisquito Avenue to one lane in each direction for the duration of the work, according to the city.

Additionally, all left turns at the Francisquito Avenue and Puente Avenue intersection will be prohibited on weekends.

City officials said the work is important to maintaining the regional sewer system and apologized for the inconvenience to motorists.

Drivers were encouraged to expect delays and use alternate routes while construction is underway.
