SCE Starts Utility Undergrounding Work on Latigo Cyn for Power Reliability & Wildfire Safety - EXPECT SOME TRAFFIC & NOISE IMPACTS FROM CONSTRUCTION

Southern California Edison (SCE) has begun construction on the Merlin Circuit Targeted Undergrounding Project along approximately 3.2 miles of Latigo Canyon Rd in Malibu as part of ongoing wildfire mitigation and electric reliability efforts.

This important infrastructure project will relocate overhead electrical equipment underground to help reduce wildfire risk, improve long-term fire safety, and strengthen electrical reliability during extreme weather conditions. Undergrounding utilities can help protect the power system from high winds, vegetation impacts, and other hazards that may contribute to wildfires and outages.

Construction is anticipated to continue through the third quarter of 2026 and will generally take place Monday – Friday from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Residents and motorists should expect intermittent lane closures, minor traffic delays, construction noise, and traffic control measures in the work area along Latigo Canyon Rd during active operations.

Construction activities may include:
• Trenching and utility potholing
• Installation of conduits, vaults, and manholes
• Cable installation
• Asphalt restoration
• Removal of overhead electrical equipment
• Vegetation trimming for safe construction access

Powering the north: why Ontario wants to fast-track transmission lines in northern Ontario
Ontario is moving to fast-track two major transmission projects in northern Ontario as the province’s appetite for energy grows in the coming years. While some of the increased demand is predictable, an energy expert says betting on massive transmission lines still comes with risks.
