Newell Creek Pipeline Improvement Project, Brackney North Section

Newell Creek Pipeline Improvement Project, Brackney North Section

The Newell Creek Pipeline Improvement Project consists of replacement of 8.75 miles of the existing Newell Creek Pipeline with a new 24-inch pipeline. The pipeline generally would be installed within existing road pavement, road right-of-way, and/or existing and proposed City easements. The proposed northern segment extends from the Newell Creek Access Road Bridge to the Felton Booster Pump Station on Graham Hill Road at Zayante Road. The proposed southern segment extends along Graham Hill Road from the Felton Booster Pump Station to the City's Graham Hill Water Treatment Plant. The Brackney North section, also referred to as the Brackney Landslide Risk Reduction Project, extends approximately 2,600 feet between the intersection of Glen Arbor Road and Schaaf Road on the north and Brackney Road on the south as shown on Figure 2. The Brackney North section alignment is located along an abandoned railroad bed near the San Lorenzo River between the Glen Arbor Road and Brackney Road neighborhoods. Installation of the Brackney North section would involve two pipeline installation methods: trenchless installation via horizontal directional drilling (HDD) and open cut trenching.
