Brighton Road Sidewalk Project

We are installing a new sidewalk!

The Brighton Road Sidewalk project is the product of a successful sidewalk petition the City received in the spring of 2019.

We plan to install a five-foot-wide sidewalk with a three- and-a-half-foot setback from the curb along the east side of the street from Glascock Street to N. King Charles Road and on the west side of the street from N. King Charles Road to Millbank Street.

Adjustments to the sidewalk width and setback may be included in the final design to avoid significant impacts in certain areas as needed and determined by our Engineering staff.
