SIDEWALK

GENERAL INFORMATION & REQUIRED DETAILS:

  • Concrete is the preferred material for all sidewalks due to light color and durability. To properly maintain and make effective repairs, constantly inspect for cracks, spalling or large changes in elevation.

    • Concrete should be placed over a 12 inch bed of gravel to minimize heaving during freeze/thaw cycles.

    • Avoid deicers with salt on concrete, especially new concrete as it will cause pits to form on the surface.
