KING CITY — California Water Service is preparing to complete work on a water infrastructure upgrade this month that will improve water supply reliability and fire protection in King City.
The project includes the installation of 1,405 feet of new 8- and 12-inch water main in the city’s downtown area.
“Infrastructure improvements like this help Cal Water maintain a reliable water supply for both everyday and emergency needs, and it enables us to keep providing quality, service and value to our customers,” said Brenda Granillo, Cal Water Salinas District Manager, who currently also oversees Cal Water’s King City District.
Construction, which began in November 2024, is being performed on Broadway Street, from North Mildred Avenue to South San Lorenzo Avenue. Temporary asphalt will be applied until permanent paving is completed, which can be up to 30 days after project completion.
California Water Service provides water utility services to about 16,000 people through approximately 2,800 service connections in King City, and more than 2 million people statewide through 497,700 service connections. More information is available at calwater.com.
