Highwoods Boulevard Sidewalk Project

Improving mobility and connectivity for pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicular traffic

We are adding a sidewalk to both sides of Highwoods Boulevard from Capital Boulevard to Atlantic Avenue. As part of this project, we will also install a sidewalk on the west side of Poplarwood Court and Smoketree Court.

The project is a cost-share project with the Highwoods Property Owners Association.

Project History

The approved 2017 Transportation Bond included $3 Million in the Public/Private Partnerships and Cost Sharing Fund. City Council approved a resolution to consider Highwoods Boulevard Sidewalk improvements as a potential project on June 6, 2017. In June 2017, Council adopted a Public/Private Partnerships Policy to provide guidance on terms the City may consider in potential partnerships. City staff worked with the Highwoods Property Owner's Association (POA) representatives on a cost-sharing partnership, making this project possible.
