East Millbrook Road before sidewalk construction

Transportation

East Millbrook Road Sidewalk Project

We are dedicated to improving pedestrian connectivity in Raleigh.

As part of the city's Capital Sidewalk program we are installing a sidewalk along the north side of East Millbrook Road from Atlantic Avenue to Capital Boulevard.

Adjustments to the sidewalk width and setback may be included in the final design to avoid significant impacts in certain areas as needed and determined by our Engineering staff.

Design

This project will install sidewalks, update curb ramps, and provide signalized pedestrian crossings on East Millbrook Road between Atlantic Avenue and Capital Boulevard.

Design work started on this project in 2015 but was put on hold in 2016 for lack of funds. The project resumed in the Fall of 2018.

Project Update

Contractors will proceed with grading and concrete work for the sidewalk and continue utility relocation work.

This project was combined with the Spring Forest Road Sidewalk Project and New Hope Road Sidewalk Project for construction. Once crews install a new sidewalk on East Millbrook, they will complete the work on Spring Forest Road.

History

The Capital Sidewalk program selects projects using a prioritization methodology. The procedure includes studying the City’s Pedestrian Plan, pedestrian crashes, street classification, household income, speed limit, age of the population, density, and proximity to parks, schools, government facilities, shopping, bus stops, libraries, hospitals, museums, and sports facilities.  Funding for this project was made possible as a result of the 2013 and 2017 Bond.
