Bathtub Row Reconstruction Project Updates
Construction activity for the week of August 25, 2025
Construction crews with TLC Plumbing & Utility continue the Bathtub Row Reconstruction Project. The project, a partnership between the County Public Works and the Dept. of Public Utilities, involves road and utility improvements on Bathtub Row from Central Ave. to Peach Street, Peach/Nectar Street to 15th St. and utility improvements along 15th St. and 19th St. The project is divided into two phases.
A full road closure on Bathtub Row from Juniper Street to Peach/ Nectar including the intersection of Peach Street and Bathtub Row is in place to allow for construction activities including roadway grading.
An additional full road closure on Nectar Street from Bathtub Row to 15th Street is in place for the crews to install the new water lines, broadband conduit, and concrete work. Community Soccer Park may be access from Peach Street/Ponderosa Street only.
The intersection of 15th Street and Iris Street will be closed for the installation of the waterline. Traffic should follow all detour signs. Driveways for Central Park Square and YMCA will be accessible with flaggers and signs.
Hours of Construction TLC Plumbing & Utility will work from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Thursday, with the addition of Fridays and weekends, as needed. Residents can expect large equipment and construction noise. To minimize disruption, the contractor will notify and coordinate with affected business owners and residents for certain construction logistics, utility upgrades, and traffic changes as work progresses. Services such as mail delivery, trash and recycling collection, school bus, transit, and emergency services will be maintained.
Please follow all posted detour signs, which are in place to maintain access to businesses and residences. Motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians are urged to exercise caution near construction areas and avoid entering the active work zone.
Stay informed — we're here to help. For any questions, concerns, or special access needs, please contact the Public Works Department at lacpw@lacnm.us or call 505-662-8150.
We appreciate the cooperation and patience of residents and business owners in advance.
