This summer the City will complete projects that create continuous sidewalks along the south side of 7th Street from Highway 25 to Fallon Avenue. The proposed project will replace approximately 400 feet of the retaining wall along the south side of 7th Street near the intersection of Locust Street. We will also construct approximately 1,000 feet of sidewalk along the south side of 7th Street between the post office and Washington Street. In addition to the City’s sidewalk addition, a new development is proposed to construct the remaining 700 feet of sidewalk that is missing in this section. Once both projects are complete the sidewalk along the south side of 7th street will be continuous from Highway 25 to Fallon Avenue.
Purpose
Approximately 1,000 feet of missing sidewalk will be constructed to allow for safer pedestrian passage in this area.
Project Improvements
- Fill a large portion of the sidewalk gap on the north side of 7th Street between State Highway 25 and Washington Street.
- Repair a section of retaining wall along 7th Street west of State Highway 25 adjacent to the Cub Foods parking lot.
- This section of wall will be replaced with a wall material similar to what was constructed at the intersection of 7th Street and Highway 25 along Hillside Cemetery.
