The first quarter of Fiscal Year 2026/27 has been a very productive period for the City of Victorville Engineering Department. From July 1through September 30, 2026, our team continued to advance projectsand initiatives that improve the safety, reliability, and long-termsustainability of our City's infrastructure.This quarter, we celebrated the completion of important constructionprojects, including a crosswalk enhancement project, which improvedpedestrian safety at nine intersections through the installation ofrectangular rapid flashing beacons, enhanced pavement markings, andnew signage. At the same time, construction continued on major waterand sewer infrastructure projects, including the Sewer Lining Project –Phase 3, which will rehabilitate approximately 16,000 linear feet ofsewer pipelines and approximately 326 service laterals.We also advanced several significant projects that will support theCity's future growth and infrastructure needs. Major projects movingtoward construction include the 1-MG SCLA Reclaimed Water Reservoir2, the Turnout 5 Project, and the HWY 395 Water Relocation Project.These projects represent substantial investments in our waterinfrastructure and will help strengthen system reliability, expand waterresources, and accommodate regional transportation improvements.The HWY 395 Water Relocation Project, for example, has reached 100%design and is being prepared for advertisement, with an estimatedconstruction value of $11 million.Our Capital Improvement Program also continues to move forward withnumerous roadway, drainage, sewer, water, and traffic projects indesign. Projects such as the Ridgecrest Road traffic signal, each MojaveDrive Improvement phase, Third Avenue Street Improvements, andimprovements at the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plantdemonstrate our continued focus on improving mobility, safety, systemcapacity, and the quality of life for our residents. I am pleased toannounce planning has begun on the Amethyst Road sidewalk projectand Air Expressway street project.
A Message from the City Engineer Beyond capital projects, the Engineering Department continued to provide essential development and technical services throughout theCity. During the quarter, our Development Engineering teamcompleted 254 permit plan checks, including 84 residential and 170commercial reviews, with additional reviews remaining in progress.The team also completed 1,423 construction inspections whilecontinuing to review hydrology, geotechnical, water quality, water andsewer feasibility, traffic studies, civil improvement plans, and right-ofway permits.Our Surveying and Mapping team continued to provide critical supportto Engineering, the Capital Improvement Program, Public Works,SCLA, and Economic Development, completing survey and mappingwork and developer document reviews that support projectsthroughout the City. Our Traffic Engineering team likewise continuedimplementing improvements focused on traffic operations andpedestrian safety, including signal timing modifications andintersection safety improvements.The accomplishments highlighted in this report are the result of thecombined efforts of our engineers, surveyors, plan checkers,inspectors, drafters, and administrative staff. I am proud of theprofessionalism, dedication, and teamwork demonstrated by theentire Engineering Department throughout the year.As we move into the next fiscal year, we remain committed todelivering projects efficiently, maintaining and improving ourinfrastructure, supporting responsible development, pursuingopportunities to leverage available funding, and planning strategicallyfor the future needs of our growing community.Thank you to the entire Engineering Department for your continuedhard work and commitment to serving the residents of the City ofVictorville.

TRAFFIC
ENGINEERING
Signal timing was updated to accommodate the new north leg (southbound Amethyst Road approach) of the intersection. Thetiming modifications included adjustments to pedestrian timing,minimum green time, yellow clearance time, and red clearancetime.Additionally, an asphalt concrete (AC) berm was installed on thenorth leg to improve pedestrian safety by restricting vehiclesfrom making uncontrolled right-turn movements through thepedestrian crossing area. The improvement helps better definethe vehicle path and reduces potential conflicts between rightturning vehicles and pedestrians.
Mojave Dr & Amethyst Rd
The Traffic Division received several complaints regarding off-road vehicles accessing the dirt area at the end of Laurel Oak Road. Recently,an off-road buggy caught fire in the area; fortunately, the incident wasbrought under control.To address the safety concerns and prevent unauthorized vehicle access,the dirt access area was blocked to restrict off-road vehicles fromentering the site.
