Request to Approve a Design Contract for Kingsley Road SW Sidewalk
Body
EXPLANATION AND SUMMARY:
This project will add sidewalk along Kingsley Road from 124 to 106 Kingsley Road SW.
This project is fully funded (design and construction) by VDOT - CMAQ/Urban Funds.
In 2012 Town Council authorized a design contract for new sidewalk along Kingsley Road SW. This project is an element of the "Walk to Vienna Metro Initiative" which closes missing links in the Town's pedestrian and bicycle network and helps residents to walk or bicycle to the Vienna Metro Station. The design was initiated in 2012, but due to a funding shortage, the project was placed on hold.
The Town recently acquired VDOT funds to update the design to current design standards, finalize the design plans, and construction the new sidewalk.
The new sidewalk will run from 124 to 106 Kingsley Road SW and so sidewalk will be constructed along the frontage of 124, 122, 120, 118, 114, 112, 110, 108, and 106 Kingsley Road.
