Q Quarterly Update
City of Victorville
Engineering Department
October 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025
We hope every one of you enjoyed a wonderful Holiday Season. Our Engineering Department worked very hard in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025-2026. I am very proud to report on our progress. Normally I report on our accomplishments for the quarter, but given that we just wrapped up 2025, I wanted to highlight the following projects we completed last year:
• Two separate Citywide Pavement Preservation Projects (Phases 1 and 2). In total we sealed over 17 miles of roads including residential roads within the Golden Triangle area and multiple arterial road segments including Amargosa Road, Hesperia Road, and Luna Road.
• Two separate drainage projects were completed at Dories Davies Park and Eucalyptus Street that address damage caused by Tropical Storm Hilary in August of 2023.
• Grant-funded sidewalk projects in Old Tow n Victorville and Village Drive were completed, and the Green Tree Extension was re-striped to improve traffic flow.
• The 7th Street Traffic Signal Modification Project was completed to upgrade the primary poles and signal cabinet equipment at five intersections on 7th Street from Mojave Drive to Lorene Drive. This project was partially funded by a $1.3M HSIP grant.
• A new traffic signal was installed at Village Drive and Puesta Del Sol, along with the addition of yellow retro-reflective tape to the borders of 96 traffic signal back plates at city intersections. These two projects included over $622k of state HSIP grant funds.
• On the Water side of the house, we installed additional fire hydrants on La Mesa Road that will provide better coverage for our Fire Department. We doubled the operating pressure and increased fire flow to 440 residences and businesses located at the north-east corner of Bear Valley Road and Balsam Road. A block wall project was completed to protect three well sites and one sewer lift station. Additionally, the roadway was restored after a significant water main break beneath Solitude Circle near Jade Avenue. • Annual updates to the Sanitary Sewer Maintenance Plan (SSMP) were also completed to ensure proper maintenance of the sewer collection system. In addition, the 30% design of the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant (IWWTP) and the Citywide Recycled Water Conceptual Study were completed, identifying a broad range of potential opportunities for beneficial use of recycled water throughout the city.
• On the Development side of the house, we managed the completion of storm drains on Third Avenue and Mojave Drive. These recently completed drainage improvements will help us manage our stormwater during rain events. We also broke ground on additional residential tracts that keep our City growing.
With these accomplishments in our rearview mirror, we are getting ready for what 2026 will bring us. We are looking forward to completing the following:
• With the street improvement projects on Ridgecrest Road and Roy Rogers Drive already awarded, we will begin construction this March once we have better weather.
• We are wrapping up the design on street improvements on Mojave Drive from Amargosa Road to I-15 and Third Avenue from Nisqualli Road to Field Street, and yet another Citywide pavement preservation project to extend the life of our roads.
• Updating our Sewer Master Plan, completing the lining of 16,000 linear feet of sewer piping, and replacing manhole lids and frames on the Green Tree Extension.
• Expanding our recycled water pipeline at SCLA to serve new industrial development as identified in the abovementioned Citywide Recycled Water Conceptual Study.
As you can see all our engineers, surveyors, plan checkers, inspectors, drafters, and admin staff are working very hard to ensure that the City’s infrastructure is improved each day and we will work very hard to make 2026 a magnificent year.
Thank you,
Fredy A. Bonilla, City Engineer
