Advisory

Balboa Island Bridge Closure

The Balboa Island bridge will be closed for two nights on November 5 and 6, from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m., for final work related to a new water main installation. The bridge was closed for several nights in October for primary construction of the replacement water main.

As with the previous closure, the Balboa Island ferry will run throughout the night to provide access to and from the island. Residents and visitors should plan to access Balboa Island via the ferry. Arrangements have been made to allow emergency vehicle access as needed.

The City is replacing a water main that serves Balboa Island in advance of the Balboa Island utility undergrounding improvements, which property owners approved in 2021. Older water mains are being replaced ahead of the undergrounding work planned for January on North Bayfront.

For questions, please contact the City’s Public Works Department at 949-644-3330.
