BACKGROUND: The construction of the Colorado Avenue and Toyon Road Water Distribution Main Replacement Project is part of RPU's ongoing water main replacement program to replace old and high priority leaky mains. The project area consists of existing 4 -inch and 6 -inch cast iron pipeline installed between 1955 and 1964. Based on their leak history, age and size, these water pipelines have been identified as high priorities for replacement to enhance system reliability and increase fire flow. This project is in line with Riverside Public Utilities' (RPU) infrastructure road map and Utility 2.0 and directly benefits RPU water customers within the vicinity of the project in terms of system reliability and improved fire protection. This project consists of approximately 1.7 miles of replacement water main, representing about 30% of RPU's goal for water main replacements during fiscal year 2016/17. The following table summarizes the water main replacement projects that have been approved for fiscal year 2016/17:
