The Huntington Beach Public Works Department Construction Manager Eric Charlonne says:

Street Lights
There are over 14,000 street lights within the City of Huntington Beach. Approximately 12,000 of these street lights are operated and maintained by Southern California Edison with the City maintaining the other 2,000. The majority of the City maintained street lights are within the downtown area. Generally these city maintained street lights are situated in the area bounded by Palm Avenue, 16th Street, Pacific Coast Highway and Main Street with additional city maintained street lights south of Orange Avenue and west of First Street.

The public's assistance is always appreciated in identifying outages or other problems with the street lights. Street light outages can be reported to Southern California Edison at (800) 611-1911 or at sce.com. City street light outages can be reported to the City at (714) 960-8861 or through the City's website at www.huntingtonbeachca.gov. The City's web-based reporting system is accessed through the I Want To” tab, Report” and Street Light Outage.”

Construction at Main Street/17th Street and Utica Intersection

Construction work has begun on the Main Street paving project between Utica/17th Street and Adams Avenue. One major challenge of the project is the reconstruction of the intersection at Utica/17th Street. The City has scheduled this work for the early part of Thanksgiving week (November 19-21) in order to reduce conflicts with the adjacent Huntington Beach High School. We have determined that the best method for completing this work efficiently is to completely close all adjacent street segments immediately adjacent to the intersection including Main Street from Yorktown to Adams, 17th Street from Main to Adams, and Utica from Main to Park. Detours around the construction area will be in place and emergency vehicle response routes will be planned around the closure. Any questions can be directed to Dave Verone at (714) 536-5431.

Thanksgiving Holiday Affects Street Sweeping and Trash Collection
Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, there will be no street sweeping on Thursday and Friday, November 22 and 23. If your street is usually swept on second and fourth Thursdays or Fridays, your street will not be swept next week. Streets that are not swept due to holidays are not rescheduled. There is no make-up schedule for street sweeping. Trash will not be collected on Thanksgiving Day. Residents on Thursday's route should place their trash for collection on Friday. Friday's route will be collected on Saturday. The regular maintenance schedule resumes on Monday, November 26. If you have questions about the holiday maintenance schedule, please contact the Public Works Maintenance division at 714-960-8861.
