Starting in September 2017 and continuing through February 2018, Southern California Edison (SCE) will be working in the cities of El Segundo and Manhattan Beach to make improvements to the electrical grid by replacing deteriorated towers with steel poles. This maintenance work is important to ensure the power grid is supported with up-to-date technology and reliability continues to improve.
Please be advised of the following:
- In some cases, large equipment such as cranes may be used. Please remain at a safe distance.
- There may be noise associated with construction activities.
- To ensure your safety during construction, there may be traffic lane and sidewalk closures. Crew members will use appropriate traffic control signs and flags. Please exercise caution when approaching a work area due to the presence of equipment and personnel.
