The Franklin Avenue Sidewalk project will construct a sidewalk on the south side of Franklin Avenue from Valley View Drive to Kingsridge Drive.
There is currently no sidewalk on either side of Franklin Avenue from Valley View Drive to Kingsridge Drive. The new sidewalk will provide a safe path for pedestrians from the neighborhoods east of Valley View Drive to the existing trail along Valley View Drive.
Currently pedestrians must walk on Franklin Avenue, resulting in an unsafe condition because of the limited sight distance caused by the curvature of the road. The new sidewalk will pass under the IAIS railroad bridge requiring construction of a retaining wall.
This project was included in the FY16 CIP with a budget of $200,000 in Sales Tax Funds.
The project schedule is as follows:
Construction Start Summer 2018
Completed September 2018
