Our New Sidewalk Update ~ Miller AND Jackson St!



Hello Friends & Neighbors ~

As you may have seen, our new sidewalk at W. Miller St. is on its way! You will notice the "ROAD CLOSED" barricades at Miller & Main; at Miller and Jackson, and also at W. Steele St and N. Church St. The pavement has been cut and each driveway has been smoothed for transition for our neighbors there. Miller Street now T's into Jackson, that large sweeping 90 degree turn is now gone and the island with the pole has been removed.

More good news! Part of this project was to extend more new sidewalk along the City Park side of N. Jackson St. We did not expect this to happen until next year. We got some insight, however, that this could be happening much sooner than expected....perhaps within the next couple of weeks! This is wonderful news. These sidewalk expansions tie our North Main Neighborhood to the Parks in ways we never had before.

We are told that the City will improve other sidewalks in the area if they are working on sidewalks in a particular section of town. We are encouraged to let the City know if there are other sidewalks that need attention.

We are delighted to have these changes happening to NOMA and extend our heartfelt appreciation to the City of Salisbury and the Fit Community Program for investing in our neighborhood. Thank You!
