Council has appropriated funds from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) towards housing, sidewalk, and non-profit initiatives. Various sidewalk gaps were selected based on the following guiding principles:

  • New (not replacement) sidewalks
  • Improve safety and mobility
  • Fill critical sidewalk gaps
  • Make an impact
  • Readily aware of need
  • Connect neighborhoods to activity centers
  • Distribute projects across Cary

Tentative Project Schedule

Current Status: Cary hired two local consultants, Kimley-Horn and RK&K, to perform professional services for the design and real estate phases. Design is anticipated to be complete Spring 2024. The consultants have begun work on acquiring sidewalk easements which can take approximately 12 months. Construction is anticipated in early 2025.
