Update on Prospect Avenue Project

Installing purple pipe for reclaimed water

New pavement is scheduled to be installed on Ian Way and Hacienda Road on the north side of Prospect on Feb. 25 and 26. Residents are being notified so they can prepare.

The southbound lane of Cottonwood Avenue where it meets Prospect Avenue will be closed March 3 -16 to allow for the installation of a decorative concrete crosswalk.   Detour signs will be put up to alert motorists and to divert traffic to surrounding streets. The northbound lane of Cottonwood Avenue will remain open.

Storm drains are being installed near Cuyamaca Street, where a stormwater bioswale is also being constructed.

Work continues on the installation of underground electrical conduit and conversion boxes in front of businesses and residences, which will eliminate the need for overhead electrical wires.

Workers are also continuing installation of curbs, gutters, sidewalks and driveways, and street surface work is continuing on the north side of Prospect Avenue.
