Project to make safer travel routes for kids headed to Nipomo Elementary School
Posted: Sep 1, 2010 10:22 AM by Bethany Tucker
Students headed to Nipomo Elementary School will have a safer route to travel in just a matter of months.
San Luis Obispo County announces it has received a Federal Safe Route to School grant to improve access to Nipomo Elementary School. The project will construct a bicycle and pedestrian path on Beechnut Avenue, bridges over Haystack Creek and sidewalks along Price Street and Thompson Avenue.
Work begins on Tuesday, September 7th and is expected to wrap up sometime at the end of December, weather permitting.
The County says anyone driving to the elementary school should allow a few extra minutes for travel time, as they may encounter delays at the construction zone.
A local company, R. Simons, has been awarded the nearly $600,000 construction contract.
