Both westbound lanes of Pacific Coast Highway in Newport Beach reopened in time for rush hour traffic Friday, despite workers not completing emergency sewer repairs there.
The work can be completed at a later time, so officials decided to open the closed westbound lane between Bayside Drive and the Balboa Bay Club, Jennifer Cabral of the Orange County Sanitation District said.
The emergency repairs, which began Thursday, are part of the Orange County Sanitation District’s Newport Force Main Project.
The two eastbound lanes aren’t be affected by the work, Cabral said.
