1st/2nd Street Sidewalks

in progress

Summary

The 1st/2nd Street Sidewalks project involves the construction of three blocks of sidewalk, curb, and gutter along 1st and 2nd Streets between Hallman and Oak Streets. The project is being pursued through Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) Revenue Sharing Funding alongside two other projects: Dwight Avenue Improvements and the Northfax East-West Roadway. On May 13, 2025, City Council unanimously adopted Resolution R-25-09, endorsing the submission of all three projects to VDOT for Revenue Sharing Funding. On September 9, 2025, Council unanimously adopted an updated Resolution R-25-27, reaffirming the submission of the same three projects with an updated application total of up to $10 million. The project remains in progress, pending VDOT's response to the funding application.

Open questions & options on the table

  • VDOT's decision on the Revenue Sharing Funding application (up to $10M total across three projects) has not yet been recorded.
  • No construction timeline or design/procurement steps have been documented in the record to date.
