The first two by the SFPUC—the Lower Crystal Springs Dam Improvement Project followed by several essential improvements to nearby pipelines and pump stations—were completed by the end of 2014. <br /><br />Before we began the dam & pipeline/pump station projects, San Mateo County demolished its existing bridge on top of the dam, which had been deemed seismically unsafe and in need of replacement. The County of San Mateo Department of Public Works Bridge Replacement project is currently in progress and scheduled for final completion in early 2018.<br /><br />It will be followed by one more several-month-long project by PG&E—the installation of high-voltage cables to replace existing overhead transmission towers. <br /><br />The bridge is currently expected to reopen for public use in fall 2018. <br /><br />For further information and updates, please visit The County of San Mateo Department of Public Works website at http://publicworks.smcgov.org/crystal-springs-dam-bridge-replacement-project<br /><br />mliapes@sfwater.org<br /> <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639221748221413844.post-90228087806302687412017-05-29T16:54:10.328-07:002017-05-29T16:54:10.328-07:00After seven years, it's still closed.

The SFPUC completed the last of its Crystal Springs Reservoir System improvements, including the dam upgrades, in 2014. Before we began those projects, San Mateo County removed its 1920s Skyline Bridge from the top of the dam for reasons of seismic safety. Now that our work is completed, the County is proceeding with its bridge replacement, currently anticipated for 2017. Updates on the status of this project can be found on http://publicworks.smcgov.org/crystal-springs-dam-bridge-replacement-project.SFPUC Infohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03329223524668839389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639221748221413844.post-51235547416704826372015-02-03T03:16:38.756-08:002015-02-03T03:16:38.756-08:00So much for the 2012 completion date for the proje...So much for the 2012 completion date for the project and replacement bridge across the dam. Latest completion date is estimated 2017? So whenever we see those orange construction project signs go up we can add 5 years to the completion date and probably triple the final cost.
