In the Plan of Conservation and Development update of 2023 the revitalization of Kensington Center was identified as a key goal and the sidewalk deficiencies were identified as an important issue to address. A sidewalk map in the RFQ package shows the existing sidewalk network and projects planned or underway to improve and enhance the sidewalk system. Subject to bid results, we expect that the Connectivity grant will help the Town build sidewalks on Four Rod Road from Winding Meadow Drive to Norton Road, on Percival Avenue from Carbo Lane to Percival Field, on Robbins Road from Town Drive to Timberwood Road, on Kensington Road from Norton Road to Steeple View Drive, and on Norton Road, east and west of Cole Lane. In the Plan of Conservation and Development update of 2023 the revitalization of Kensington Center was identified as a key goal and the sidewalk deficiencies were identified as an important issue to address. The Town is presently in the contracting phase for the Connectivity Grant and it wants to retain an engineering consulting firm for this project so that it will be ready to advance the project. Therefore, the Town is seeking a qualified engineering firm to provide services related to plan review, permitting, and construction administration for the sidewalk project.
