Sidewalk Renewal (miscellaneous locations)

completed

Closed

Design and Construction: Renewal of sidewalks includes panel replacement, removal of obstacles, upgrade from asphalt to concrete, and may involve widening and bringing up to the new standards. The renewal of sidewalks enhances the pedestrian networks close to public transit, schools, and other high pedestrian demand areas. The City has an ongoing sidewalk renewal program. This project funding will be dedicated to focus on existing sidewalks along roadways and Priority A walkways (connecting routes) that have identified rehabilitation needs in major core area sectors, employment centres, and design priority areas within 600 metres of transit stations. City wide prioritization will be finalized upon funding approvals. Examples could include sections along Metcalfe Street and Constitution Square in the vicinity of downtown LRT stations; St-Joseph Boulevard in the vicinity of the Orleans Transit Station; Richmond Road in the vicinity of the Lincoln Fields Transition Station; Centrepointe Pathway in vicinity of the Baseline Transit Station; and locations such as Patricia Avenue, Southmore Drive, Thorndale Drive and Highcroft Avenue. Additionally, other related works, if/where possible, may include but not necessarily be limited to connections between pedestrian/cycling locations and transit system locations. An example may be supporting 40-foot diesel bus acquisition in relation to routes in the proximity of the sidewalk renewal works to aid pedestrian and cycling traffic connectivity to the bus network. The expanded project activities are intended to further the City’s ability to advance safer community active transportation/transit priorities by leveraging the remaining program funding allocation as much as possible.
