Wastewater pipeline project to begin construction in Auburn, Calif.
According to YubaNet, work is set to begin next week on the North Auburn Wastewater Pipeline Project.
The new wastewater trunkline, which is designed to relieve capacity restraints, will be constructed along Joeger Road, Richardson Drive, Park Drive and Quartz Drive, YubaNet reported in a project update.
The initial phase, beginning March 10, will focus on pinpointing the location of underground utilities. Pipeline construction will follow, which is scheduled to start at the corner of Park Drive and Quartz Drive in North Auburn, and move southeast toward state Route 49.
Construction activities will progress through the project area in segments, with expected completion in late 2025.
About the North Auburn Wastewater Pipeline Project
The North Auburn Wastewater Pipeline, which is Phase I of the Highway 49 wastewater capacity improvement project, includes installation of a new wastewater pipeline (force main). The pipeline will connect existing infrastructure to the Placer County Regional Pump Station on Joeger Road in unincorporated western Placer County.
Construction will be in two phases. Phase I will begin in early 2025 and will include installation of a 24-inch force main between Quartz Drive and the Placer County Regional Pump Station on Joeger Road. Phase II will include construction of a 16-inch force main between Edgewood Road and Quartz Drive, and will be scheduled at a later time.
