recommendation
OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
This project will remove and replace the damaged sidewalk along the north side of NE 40th St from 156th Ave NE to Bel-Red Road. The existing sidewalk along NE 40th St has been severely damaged due to tree root upheavals. In order to meet ADA guidelines, this project requires replacement of thirteen curb ramps and nine driveway entrances as well as the removal of approximately 49 street trees that have caused severe tripping hazards.
Public Works has been in contact with all affected properties throughout the design phase. Communications and Public Works have developed a public outreach plan which consists of flyers, posters, and social media communication. The implementation of the Outreach Plan began when the project was advertised.
