The City of Sault Ste. Marie has released details of this year's curb and sidewalk construction program.

Your tax dollars will provide $469,711 for 1,353 square metres of sidewalks, 589 linear metres of curb and 12 accessibility ramps.

"Typically each year, the program has been compiled from requests from councillors, residents and staff," says Susan Hamilton Beach, director of public works.

"Budgetary constraints allow for a limited amount of work to be undertaken each year," she says.

"It is necessary to prioritize the requests and normally not all requests can be accommodated. It should also be noted that due to the pandemic this construction season, there may be a further impact to the planned concrete program."

The planned work represents 0.3 per cent of sidewalks maintained by the city, and 0.1 per cent of curbs.
