The following message has been shared with RSCA regarding road work being done in the Marlin Park area of Redwood Shores. Residents in the affected areas should have received this message in a letter, but for those outside the region or visiting this area, please be aware of work being done that may affect access or may be disruptive with noise. 

Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) is currently upgrading a portion of our natural gas distribution system serving Compass Circle and Skiff Circle in Redwood City. This project will improve the safety and integrity of the pipelines that deliver natural gas directly to homes and businesses. Work hours will be 9am to 3pm, weekdays, Monday through Friday. Most of the pipelines that will be replaced are located under the street, although a portion of the replacement work will take place on private property. If your property will be affected, a PG&E representative will contact you before work begins. We will also let you know if your gas service will be interrupted. During construction, you will see PG&E trucks and other heavy equipment. At the end of the project, PG&E will refinish roadways and work with property owners to restore landscaping. This work will affect traffic and parking at times during construction. PG&E will clearly mark all work areas, and traffic flaggers will help to direct traffic. Although access to some driveways may be occasionally affected, crews can provide access within a few minutes of your request. However, please plan ahead for these minor delays if crews are working outside your home or business, or when driving through the area. We expect this work to last until the end of May, although weather and other factors affecting safe working conditions may change this schedule.

At times, you may smell gas and hear a loud hissing noise as we vent natural gas from the pipeline using safe and common techniques. Although this is normal when crews are working, we encourage anyone who has concerns about the smell of gas to call us 24 hours a day at 1-800-743-5000.

If you have any questions or concerns about this project, please call your Customer Care Representative Austin Sharp at 650-730-4168. We will also be holding an Open House event in the near future to give you the opportunity to speak with the project team and have any questions answered. You will receive in invite to this event in the mail with the time and location. We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we complete this project. Thank you.
