Underground Flow Equalization System

UFES Schedule Update – November 14, 2022

UFES Project Schedule for November 14 – November 28, 2022

We’re making great construction progress toward pollution prevention in San Mateo. Last year’s rainy season reminded all of us why our 10-year, $1 billion Clean Water Program is so essential to the future of our City.

One of the most important projects in the program is our Underground Flow Equalization System (UFES).

As a follower to this newsletter, you already know that construction is underway on our UFES at the County Event Center. Once completed, our UFES will eventually be the underground 5.3-million-gallon structure that will temporarily hold excess wastewater during storms.

The following construction work is planned for the UFES project from Nov. 14 through Nov. 28, 2022. (Please note, schedules can change. We will issue this update biweekly throughout 2022):

  • Inside the Event Center Site: Additional concrete pours requiring after-hours approval
  • S. Delaware Street: Equipment installation and removal related to pipeline work will continue
  • Saratoga Drive: Lane closures for Saratoga Drive in the vicinity of the San Mateo County Event are in place. Please watch for signs indicating traffic pattern changes.

Alerts will be sent via newsletter and text message ahead of work requiring traffic updates, work hour changes, or expected to generate excess noise at the Event Center site.

Don’t miss an alert. Sign up today for FREE text alerts here or text the word UFES to 1-833-321-0231.
