Re: City Updates
Since the Committee’s meeting on March 13, 2024, I have the following updates to report on
behalf of City staff:
• The Bicycle & Pedestrian Bridge received a grant of $8.1 million from the Federal
Reconnecting Communities and Neighborhoods Grant program. This closes the final
funding gap we had and keeps us on track for 2025 – 2026 construction.
• City Center Park Boardwalk Contract Plans and Bid Documents are being finalized to be
released this Spring.
• A Request for Proposals was sent out to the City’s pre-qualified consultants for the design
and construction of a sidewalk on Mary Street. This is in the CIP for FY25 construction.
• A school zone was approved by Council on Dorset Street in front of the middle and high
schools. DPW is ordering the signs and will install them once received (2-3 month lead
time typically).
• Alternatives for the Allen Road Shared Use Path Scoping Study will be presented at the
May Committee for discussion amongst the Committee and the public.
• A path connection on Garden Street from the new section/bridge to Dorset Street is in
final design and being prepared for permitting.
• The second Active Transportation Plan public meeting is being planned for the end of
May. More details to come as we finalize a date and begin outreach for that meeting.
