Project description:

• New 0.7 mile sidewalk on the east side of Sudley Road between Mathis Avenue and  Grant Avenue
• 5 feet from Grant Ave. to Portner Ave. and 6 feet from Portner Ave. to Mathis Ave.
• Existing 4 foot sidewalk without buffer on west side of Sudley Road.
• Project Cost: $3 - $3.1 million
• 2 alternatives:

             

                                

Alternative 1: 6’ buffer                                                        Alternative 2: 3’ buffer
between sidewalk and roadway                                     between sidewalk and roadway

Impacts:

• Alternative 1 provides a wider buffer and consequently more comfort for pedestrians
• Alternative 2 provides a narrower buffer but will have less right-of-way impacts on private properties.

Status:

• This project is identified in the Pedestrian Network Plan of the Comprehensive Plan 
• The concept was developed in February 2022
• State revenue sharing funds were awarded for right of way and construction in FY25 – FY26.
• The public comment period concluded in February 2023
• The design phase is expected to begin in summer 2023

Concept:
              Alternative 1: 6’ buffer between sidewalk and roadway
              Alternative 2: 3’ buffer between sidewalk and roadway
