Project Description:  The project will install four pressure regulating stations, pipeline, and interconnections within the following boundaries: north of Cactus Avenue and south of Cottonwood Avenue, and between Heacock Street and Lasselle Street, to improve water flows and pressure for over 2,000 customers in the Moreno Valley area.

Project Location:  The project consists of several components in the following areas:

• Four (4) Pressure Regulated Stations
  • Off of Heacock Street, immediately south of Alessandro Boulevard
  • Corner of Indian Street and Alessandro Boulevard
  • Corner of Lasselle Street and Alessandro Boulevard
  • Corner of Lasselle Street and Cactus Avenue

• Two (2) 12-inch Pipelines
  • Along Perris Boulevard south of Alessandro Boulevard
  • Along Lasselle Street north of Alessandro Boulevard
• Series of pressure zone pipe interconnections located along Cactus Avenue; and, on the corner of Brodiaea Avenue and Perris Boulevard
• Series of Valve Closures at or near Cactus Avenue

Project Timeline:  The project began construction in the Summer of 2022 and is set to substantially complete by end of July 2023. Throughout construction, the community can expect traffic delays and temporary water system interruptions happening intermittently.

Project Purpose:  The proposed modifications will improve pressures, water flow, and accommodate new development.

Project Update (as of September 20, 2023):

• Crews have successfully completed the majority of project activities. 

• From now until early 2024, the community can expect work to continue at PRS #3 located at Lasselle and Alessandro, by the Crystal Cove Apartment development.

• Final paving has not been completed along the project alignment as EMWD is working closely with the City of Moreno Valley for coordination and to minimize community impacts.
