726-6US-0570 - Utility Pole Replacement Project

Caltrans District 7 has approved an encroachment permit allowing Southern California Edison to replace an existing 50-foot Class 4 distribution pole with a new 50-foot Class 2 distribution pole at the same location along the sidewalk in the southbound direction of State Route 1 at postmile 14.2 in Torrance, Los Angeles County. The work will involve excavation with a maximum depth of 84 inches, an average width of 48 inches, and a maximum length of 4 feet, with no relocation of public utilities or acquisition of new right-of-way required. The project is part of a utility pole replacement initiative designated as 726-6US-0570, forecasted on July 2, 2026, and managed by Caltrans with Mojgan Abbassi, Senior Environmental Scientist, serving as the primary point of contact with the provided email and phone number for inquiries.
