Sidewalk Development Program: North 90th Street

Project Area

SDOT is planning to build a new sidewalk on the south side of North 90th Street between Dayton Avenue North and Fremont Avenue North in 2013.  The new sidewalk will complete a missing gap that, once finished, will provide a continuous pedestrian connection between the Greenwood Avenue North and Aurora Avenue North.

Project purpose and funding
