To: David M. Gatchel, City Manager
Subject: Sidewalks - Western Sector of the City
In accordance with your instructions and at the request of the
City Council, the City Engineer and Chief of Police ~ave completed
a study of the sidewalk situation in the western sector as it
affects school children walking to and from Spady Elementary and
Carver High schools.
It is our recommendation that the following sidewalks be installed
to form a basic grid-work of walkways covering the main routes
traveled to and from these schools.
Lin. Ft. Cost
NW 8th Avenue from Atlantic Avenue to 2nd Street. 1200 $$ 2. 2400
NW 2nd Street from 8th Avenue to 14th Avenue. 2100 4200
NW 10th Avenue from 2nd Street to 3rd Street. 650 1300
NW 14th Avenue from Atlantic Avenue to 3rd Street. 1900 3~00
SW 2nd Street from 5th Avenue to 8th Avenue. 1000 2000

SWirl'th Avenue from Atlantic Avenue to 3rd Street. 1900 3800
SW 14th Avenue from Atlantic Avenue to 3rd Street. 1900 $2~
In order to realize full use of these sidewalks it will be desirable
to have crossings over Atlantic Avenue at 14th Avenue, llth Avenue
and 8t~ Avenue in addition to the traffic light crossing at 5th
Avenue.
Cost estimates are being obtained on two types of overhead footwalks;
one a prefabricated steel arch-type walk as offered by t~e Pittsburgh
DesMoines Steel Co., and the other a prestressed concrete walkway
being considered by the County Engineering Office. These figures
will be at hand in the very near future and will be covered in a
separate memo.
