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 approved Resolution R-25-09, endorsing the submission of these three projects for VDOT Revenue Sharing Funding. On September 9, 2025, Council unanimously adopted an updated resolution (R-25-27) to resubmit the same three projects with an updated application total of up to $10 million. The project remains in progress, pending VDOT's funding decision.

Open questions & options on the table

  • VDOT's decision on the Revenue Sharing Funding application (up to $10M, submitted per R-25-27) is still pending.
