The streets being rehabilitated in this group of projects have varying issues surrounding their need for rehabilitation. Each street will be addressed with different rehabilitation measures to properly manage the unique circumstances of each street and will involve some, or most, of the following elements which include: street section removal and replacement (“dig outs”), cold milling, asphalt rubber aggregate membrane (ARAM) and asphalt paving, slurry sealing (micro-surfacing), repair of damaged sidewalk, curb & gutter, cross gutter, catch basin repair, upgrade of access ramps, installation of catch basin inlet filters, adjustment of utility covers to finish grade, restoration of traffic signing, striping, and pavement markings, and reestablishment of centerline ties and monuments.

The sewer improvements consist of connecting an existing 8” sewer line at Louise Street to an 18” sewer line in Garden Grove Boulevard. Sewer flow at Dale Street will be routed to an 18" sewer main at Garden Grove Boulevard by modifying the existing manhole. The improvements also include the abandonment of an existing 8" sewer line (550') in Garden Grove Boulevard, re-connecting two house laterals, removal of two existing sewer manholes and constructing one 60” diameter sewer manhole.
