City Sewers

Future Projects

The City of Los Angeles is currently planning and designing over 150 sewers and sewer related projects that will be built over the next decade as part of the 10-Year LA Sewers Construction Program.

The projects will be built throughout Los Angeles, especially in areas where sewers are very old and deteriorating or undersized. The Department of Public Works will, whenever possible, build most of these sewers using microtunneling technology because in most cases, microtunneling is less disruptive to neighborhoods than trenching.

For more information about future projects, please refer to the Integrated Resources Plan to learn about strategic planning for City of Los Angeles sewers, wastewater treatment plants, and stormwater systems.

 Here are some sewers that will be built in the future:


Alvarado Crandall Relief Sewer
The City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works will soon begin constructing a relief sewer along Alvarado Street from Bellevue Avenue to Beverly Boulevard and along Beverly Boulevard from Alvarado Street to Rampart Boulevard .  PROJECT PAGE


Buchanan Relief Sewer
The City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works will soon begin construction on a sewer project in a portion of Eagle Rock.  PROJECT PAGE


Central Area Cement Sewer Renewal Program
Unit 6

This project will begin in fall 2007 with approximately 3,900 feet of new sewers in the Western Avenue - 65th Street area.    PROJECT PAGE


Central Outfall Sewer Rehabilitation Project
The COS is one of the City’s biggest and oldest sewers. The section of the COS that will be repaired is 14,400 feet (2.7 miles) long and runs from Parking Lot C at LAX to a point near the intersection of Market St. and Hyde Park Blvd. in Inglewood.    PROJECT PAGE



MAZE 5 Sewer Rehabilitation Project
The City’s major sewer system that serves Baldwin Hills, the Crenshaw District and Leimert Park, called the MAZE, has been undergoing repairs since the mid-1990s to correct decades of pipeline deterioration.  PROJECT PAGE
