Project Limits
Installation of a sidewalk on the east and west side of Glendale Circle up to Fair Street, and filling in the small sidewalk gaps on Glendale Circle and Fair Street.
Current Project Engagement Opportunities
TBA
Why is this project being done?
Filling gaps in the sidewalk system is consistent with both Ann Arbor's Moving Together Towards Vision Zero transportation plan and Complete Streets Policy. Providing sidewalks where they currently do not exist can:
- Improve pedestrian safety
- Encourage active transportation and community health
- Provide a continuous user experience
- Provide more transportation options
- Eliminate the practice of walking along the road and across traffic
Sidewalk gaps throughout Ann Arbor were prioritized for completion based on a system of safety, proximity to pedestrian destinations, roadway classification adjacent to the existing sidewalk gap, resident requests, and other related criteria. For more information, visit the New Sidewalk FAQ webpage.
Possible impacts
Flagging may be necessary to maintain 2-way traffic on Glendale Circle, please take caution while driving near the construction site.
Construction will unavoidably generate dust and noise and many other inconveniences. In addition, you may see utility flags, surveyor stakes, and protection fences located along the street which are important to construction and should not be disturbed.
Reconstruction of driveway aprons and some landscaping removals and possible tree removals within the path of the new sidewalk within city of right of way is required.
The project team will make every effort to avoid property impacts and will coordinate directly with specifically impacted property owners as needed.
