City of Fayetteville issued the following announcement on Feb 14.
Construction will begin soon for several sidewalks in Fayetteville supported in the City’s Strategic Plan. These improvements are part of the City’s overall commitment to improving safety and quality of life.
Currently, Fayetteville includes 2,059,306 linear feet of sidewalk throughout the City.
“Sidewalks provide numerous health, economic and safety benefits,” Public Services Director Sheila Thomas-Ambat said. “Pedestrians deserve spaces that are safe and accessible. Fayetteville City Council Members challenge us to offer exemplary City services. The sidewalks coming in 2022 are just one example of services we are proud to offer.”
Since the start of 2022, two sections of sidewalk projects were finished and are now ready for pedestrians. Some 225 linear feet of sidewalk along Cliffdale Road between Skibo Road and the Freedom Center was finished last week. See photos of the Cliffdale Road sidewalk here.
In January, residents saw crews complete work on 750 linear feet of new sidewalk with ADA ramps along Ramsey Street between Summerchase Drive and Andrews Road. Photos are available here.
Three additional sidewalk sections are scheduled to be completed in Summer 2022 totaling nearly 14,000 linear feet in various areas of the City:
