9-Month Sewer Improvement Work at Drumm & Jackson Starts April 12th

The Drumm and Jackson Streets Sewer Improvements project is scheduled to begin construction on April 12, 2018 and to be completed by the end of 2018. For more information, please visit the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) website at sfwater.org/edjsewers and review the project fact sheet for construction details and project map.

The majority of the rehabilitation will be by trenchless (below ground) construction method to minimize street level construction activities. There will be some above-ground construction for access points to the sewer, and portions of the traffic lanes on Drumm Street may be closed for worker safety.

  • Sewer service in the area will NOT be interrupted during construction.
  • Street parking will not be allowed near construction zones. “No-parking” signs will be posted 72 hours in advance.
  • Streets will stay open for traffic throughout construction, with reduced traffic lanes and optional detour routes available. Traffic delays should be expected.
  • No bus impacts are expected at this time.
  • Noisy work will be conducted in compliance with the San Francisco Noise Ordinance. Most construction work is expected to be performed during daytime hours.
  • If necessary, odor control measures will be in place during construction.
  • A 30-day and 10-day notice will be distributed prior to construction to residents and businesses within the project area detailing traffic impacts and project details.

The SFPUC is working to minimize impacts and disruptions and is committed to providing timely information. If you have any questions or comments, please contact the SFPUC hotline at (415) 554-3289 or send an email to ssip@sfwater.org.
