Bloomington Sewer Expansion Project

The Bloomington Sewer Expansion Project, led by the San Bernardino County Department of Public Works, involves the installation of a new sewer main and associated manholes along Marygold Avenue, Locust Avenue, and Linden Avenue in Bloomington, California, to enable the transition of properties from septic systems to a centralized sewer network. Construction is anticipated to last approximately five months and will be conducted entirely within existing rights-of-way to avoid traffic detours, nighttime work, or utility relocations. Equipment such as excavators, paving machines, and asphalt rollers will be utilized, with all construction noise allowed only between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. on weekdays and Saturdays, in accordance with San Bernardino County Development Code 83.01.80(g)(3), excluding Sundays and federal holidays.
