Freeman Street, Postell Street, and Coleman Street Sidewalk Project

We are installing new sidewalk!

We are installing a five-foot-wide sidewalk on Freeman Street, Postell Street, and Coleman Street.  

  • On the east side of Freeman Street from the existing sidewalk to Postell Street; 
  • On the south side of Postell Street from Freeman Street to Coleman Street; and,
  • On both sides of Coleman Street from Postell Street to the existing sidewalk.  

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.

Construction updates

March 2025

The contractors have completed work on the following streets: Freeman Street (from the existing sidewalk to Postell Street), Postell Street (from Freeman Street to Coleman Street), and the west side of Coleman Street (from Postell Street to the existing sidewalk). They plan to finish work on the east side of Coleman Street in April.

Additionally, crews have started construction on Brighton Road (from Glascock Street to North King Charles Road). They will begin working on Rawls Drive once the projects on Coleman Street and Brighton Road are completed.

We have combined the project with our Rawls Drive and Brighton Road projects for construction.
