SFPUC Construction to begin soon on Crestline Drive

Beginning as early as the last week of July 2009, Cal State Constructors, the contractor working for the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission will begin work on the new water pumping station (Vista Francisco) located on Crestline Drive (approximately mid-block).

The purpose of this project is to improve water delivery to the neighborhood and system reliability.


The Vista Francisco Pump Station is one of approximately 70 Water System Improvement Program projects that will repair, replace and seismically upgrade the Hetch Hetchy Water System.

Night Work --Tonight

SFPUC water operations will make service connections from the new water main to your residences and businesses again tonight.

All attempts were made to facilitate the water main connections during normal working hours (as in all other cases), but a daycare function until 7pm and another community meeting until 10pm, required this after hours work last night. The connection on west bound side of the street could not be scheduled to coincide with the work performed last night, due to the need to re-route traffic around the job site.

The crew does not anticipate that tonight’s work will continue as long as last evening’s activities. Crews have been instructed to make every effort to minimize noise and disruption. Again, we apologize for this inconvenience.

Location: Sanchez between 16th and 17th

Meet us for Coffee

Come join us for a Neighborhood Coffee on Friday, July 10 from 8:30 to 9:30 am at the H Café, 3801 17th Street @Sanchez. Meet the project team and ask questions or give us your comments and suggestions. We’ll host this Neighborhood Coffee the second and fourth Fridays in July and August.

No construction activity this Friday due to the Holiday. The contractor has consolidated equipment and pipe, removed unnecessary “no parking” signs” and cleaned the streets. Service connections and testing will resume on 19th Street from Noe to Sanchez next week through the end of the month. Work on Sanchez between 18th to Market will also continue after the holiday.
