Planned Pedestrian Improvements
New sidewalks are added in Greensboro in any of these ways:
- As required site improvements through the development approval process (see policies)
- Incorporated into the design of roadway resurfacing, widening, reconstruction or new construction projects
- As stand-alone sidewalk installation projects initiated by GDOT or by citizen petition.
The City also maintains and upgrades damaged or deficient sidewalks and wheelchair ramps throughout Greensboro. Because of limited funds, our practice is to upgrade ramps to current standards whenever a street is repaved.
If you know of damaged or deficient sidewalks or ramps, please tell us.
Sidewalk Construction Projects
The City's ongoing efforts to construct new sidewalks are made possible in part by the 2000 Transportation Improvement Bond. These projects are one aspect of the City's walkability policy.
Sidewalks Soon to Be Completed
- Wendover Avenue between Bridford Parkway and Edwardia Drive
- Bridford Parkway: NCDOT will fill a gap in the sidewalk by spring 2008
- Green Valley Road between Benjamin Parkway and Westover Terrace, through a public-private partnership
