FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Metro to Install Drainage System Saturday at Metro Orange Line Intersection

Metro contractors will excavate trenches and install new drainage pipes on the west side of the intersection of Hazeltine Avenue and Bessemer Street in the San Fernando Valley on Saturday, October 30, 2004 between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.  The work is part of  construction of the Metro Orange Line, a 14-mile transitway that is due to begin service from Warner Center to the Metro Red Line North Hollywood Station in 2005.

The work will be conducted in phases so that at least one lane of traffic will be maintained in each direction at all times, although motorists may encounter some traffic delays.  Pedestrian access will be maintained.

To support this work, lane closures and parking restrictions can be expected on Hazeltine Avenue and Bessemer Street in the immediate vicinity of the intersection.   Traffic control equipment, including signage and flashing arrow boards, will guide motorists around the construction.
