Third Avenue has been prioritized for watermain, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, culvert and roadway replacement due to the poor condition of aging infrastructure. A new sidewalk is planned on Third Avenue from Locust Street and on the east side from Brant Avenue Chestnut Street to improve connectivity. The proposed design follows the City's Complete Street Guidelines to make the street accessible for roadway users of all ages and abilities. Existing Conditions The sidewalk on Third Avenue will be implemented by extending the existing culvert while maintaining the existing road width. Furthermore, barrier curb and wooden fencing will be constructed to ensure pedestrian safety. Similarly, both proposed sidewalks on Churchill Crescent near the gully will have a wooden fence to protect pedestrians. A map of the proposed improvements can be found here.
