Sidewalk Closures
The following sidewalk closures (lasting more than 48 hours) are in effect or scheduled:
Avon Street (Belmont Bridge Project) - Until December 31, 2023
The eastern sidewalk along 9th/Avon Street will be closed between Levy Avenue and Graves Street to relocate private utility lines. Pedestrians will be directed to the mid-block crossing at Graves Street across 9th/Avon Street as well as to the open crosswalks at 9th/Avon/Levy/Garrett intersection. Graves Street between 9th/Avon and Monticello Road as well as Monticello Road between Graves Street and Old Avon will be flagged intermittently. These impacts are expected through mid-May 2023.
Emmet Street (UVA Grounds) - Until December 1, 2023
Pedestrians are detoured at the UVA parking garage at a Rapid Flashing Beacon and crosswalk, up the sidewalk on the east side of Emmet, crossed over to a protected pedestrian walkway in the median for approximately 100 feet and then crossed back to the sidewalk on the west side.
Emmet Street (Faulconer) - Until April 18, 2023
Temporary crosswalks, redirecting pedestrians to other side of street. Physical barriers to closed sidewalk should be placed immediately after the last opportunity to cross the street, in order to redirect vision-impaired pedestrians. The same goes for placing a barrier after a bike lane detour ends, in order to redirect vision-impaired pedestrians back out of the street
Ivy Road (Faulconer) - Until March 31, 2023
North sidewalk along Ivy Road. Same side of the street alternate pedestrian route has been set up.
Old Avon Street (Belmont Bridge Project) - Until January 25, 2024
The southern sidewalk along Old Avon Street is closed between Monticello Road. The detour route will be along the Northern sidewalk. Flaggers will assist.
Park Street & East High Street (Lumos) - Until March 17, 2023
A pedestrian path through the street surrounded by barriers should be sufficient. A short ramp may be necessary for wheelchair access if the pedestrian detour directs them off of the sidewalk.
Water Street (Belmont Bridge Project) - Until May 31, 2023
Pedestrians are being directed to the southern sidewalk at existing crosswalks.
