Laguna Canyon Channel Replacement Project

PROJECT UPDATE JANUARY 2023
LAGUNA CANYON CHANNEL REPLACEMENT PROJECT

What we’re working on now:
In the month of January, channel work along the Laguna Beach Water District waterline will continue while preparing to transition into Phase 2, including curbs and gutters, sidewalks, ADA ramps, grading at the mini-park, decorative fencing and the start of asphalt trench paving.

Parking Update (Laguna Frontage Rd.)

In late December 2022, 10 additional parking spots in Zone 3 were closed so that construction crews could access and safely protect the Laguna Beach Water District waterline prior to channel construction in Zone 2. This will help save time and continue progression of project construction.

13 parking spaces will open for resident use near the mini-park by the end of January 2023.
