The undergrounding on
Santa Ana Canyon Road, between Lakeview Avenue and Imperial Highway; and the
segment on Royal Oak Road, from north of Santa Ana Canyon Road to Nohl Ranch
Road, is currently in construction. The undergrounding is currently being coordinated with the affected
telecommunication companies for joint trenching, and with the Public Works
Department for improvements to the existing median island and slope conditions
along Santa Ana Canyon Road. The
overhead electrical facilities for the Royal Oak phase have been placed
underground, and streets have been repaved. Telecommunication companies are
currently working to underground their facilities, and are scheduled to be
complete by Spring 2023. Construction
for the Santa Ana Canyon phase started in June 2021 and is anticipated to be
completed in Spring 2023.
