Background and Discussion:
The project includes the design and construction of over 7-mile sidewalk along Spears Road, TC Jester Boulevard and Walters Road within and near the Claughton Middle School attendance boundaries.

The proposed easement will provide a safe route to the school and neighborhood connectivity to the commercial facilities along the major roads.
