In addition to establishing a continuous pedestrian facility <br /> along the major north-south axis to Carrboro,the improvement would provide pedestrian access to bus stops for 8 Chapel Hill Transit <br /> routes and one GoTriangle Route within the 1/2 mile(the walking service area). The project connects the recently completed <br /> improvements to Smith Level Road (U-2803)and the future Morgan Creek Greenway(EL-4828)to downtown Carrboro. <br /> Please detail project justification <br /> The South Greensboro Street sidewalk was identified as a capital project in the 2017 Orange County Transit Plan and <br /> allocated $552,340 of transit tax revenues to be applied toward the local match for construction. (Of note, $40,000 was <br /> subsequently allocated toward another project.) The S Greensboro St project was carried-over as part of the 2022 <br /> Orange County Transit Plan Update. In 2021,the Town learned that an existing 6-inch AC water line would need to be <br /> replaced as part of the project, and the engineer's preliminary estimate has indicated an increase in construction costs. <br /> The Town has subsequently submitted TIP amendments for additional federal funds,this includes a request for$700,000 <br /> of Regional Flexible funding and an allocation of$443,418 of local discretionary(federal STBG-DA)funds. Plans are at 65 <br /> percent complete; waterline plans at 60-percent complete. The Town is seeking$81,275 of additional transit revenues <br /> to apply toward the local match. <br /> Phase Fiscal Quarter and Fiscal Year Fiscal Quarter and <br /> Planning <br /> Design <br /> Construction <br /> Equipment <br /> Land - Right of Way <br /> Other <br /> Project Goal <br /> Implementation Matrics <br /> 57 <br />
