Overhill Road closed through December for EBMUD pipeline work
By Sora O'Doherty
Overhill Road in Orinda will be completely closed between the hours of 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. through Dec. 30 weekdays to allow the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) to construct a pipeline replacement project that will upgrade 6,000 linear feet of existing pipeline to improve residential service in the area, fire flows, and service reliability and redundancy during outages.
The temporary full road closure will affect that portion of Overhill Road between Moraga Way and Hillcrest Drive. Portions of Overhill Court, and Tara Road will also be closed to through traffic during construction. Residents located in the vicinity of the proposed road closure will need to detour using Tara Road to Moraga Way. EBMUD has begun informing local Overhill Road residents via mailed letters of the proposed work and associated road closures.
