From the April edition of Councilwoman Sawyer’s monthly newsletter (Click here to read entire April newsletter along with an archive of all newsletters and link to sign up to receive them directly), we share this important story about the Hilltop Sidewalk Program:
Council District 5 is getting some essential sidewalk gaps filled this summer. Denver’s sidewalk network is critical to achieve the City goal of providing a walkable environment that is safe and comfortable for all users and treats all users with dignity. New sidewalk will be installed at the following locations:
Hilltop
- E. 6th Avenue Parkway from Colorado Boulevard to Albion Street and Ash Street to Bellaire Street
- North side of E. 6th Avenue Parkway at Clermont Street
- West side of Albion Street from E. 5th Avenue to E. 6th Avenue Parkway
- West side of Bellaire Street from E. 5th Avenue to E. 6th Avenue Parkway
- West side of Clermont Street from E. 5th Avenue to north side of E. 6th Avenue Parkway, extending north for one property
Crestmoor
- West side of Monaco Parkway from E. 6th Avenue Parkway to E. 1st Avenue, as well as northeast corner of E. 4th Avenue and Monaco Parkway
Montclair/Mayfair:
- Monaco Parkway at E. 10th Avenue
- Monaco Parkway at E. 12th Avenue
- South side of E. 11th Avenue from Magnolia Street to Niagara Street
Denver’s Sidewalk Construction Program is focused on constructing sidewalks where there are gaps in the sidewalk network. With over 300 miles of sidewalk gaps in the city to fill, Denver’s Program focuses on filling in high priority gaps. Upcoming work in Council District 5 will be funded through Elevate Denver Bond funds which and will allow better access to transit, schools, grocery stores and parks.
