The project will include the removal of the existing old, broken, ageing, and non-ADA compliant sidewalks and construct 6,400 SF of 5 ft wide brick paver sidewalks with ADA compliant ramps on Georgia SR 40/West King Street. The proposed construction will also include a 7.5 feet wide green space area between the existing curb and gutter and the new sidewalks. Single trunk crape myrtles will be planted within the greenspace area. The proposed trees will be of an appropriate type and size as to be compliant with Georgia Department of Transportation landscaping standards and will be planted 4.25 feet from the face of the curb. The project will not include irrigation.
The project will also include the installation of 10,000 SF of 5 feet wide concrete sidewalks and ADA compliant ramps along North/South West Street, North/South Arizona Street and South Orange Edwards Boulevard.
