A second Public Works project is fast approaching a Monday deadline to request a public meeting.

The Greenwell Road Sidewalk Project provides a pedestrian thoroughfare along the south end of the road, extending from Shore Drive to Bayside Recreation Center.

The city plans to install a 5 foot wide concrete sidewalk from Shore Drive to Delco Road, and an 8 foot wide asphalt pathway from Delco to First Court Road, along the west side of the street.
