Crescent Avenue Sidewalk Project

The City of Twin Oaks is currently considering a proposal to build a sidewalk along a portion of Crescent Avenue. The purposes of the sidewalk is to provide a safer route for pedestrians who use the road for walking or jogging or to access Twin Oaks Park via the entrance on Golden Oak Court. 

Project Plans and Estimated Cost

For the last several months, the City has been working with its engineers to develop a plan for the sidewalk. The proposed sidewalk would run on the north side of Crescent Avenue from Crescent Road to Golden Oak Court with much of the sidewalk to be constructed in the existing public right-of-way. You can download the complete plan at the links below:

Based on the plan above, the City is currently estimating the project cost to be $117,177.50. This cost includes a 10 percent contingency but does not include right-of-way acquisition or engineering fees. The project would be paid for using the city's operating budget, without the need for a bond issue or tax increase. 

Open House and Online Survey

At this time, the City is seeking to gather feedback from residents and others who regularly use the road on the proposed plans for the sidewalk. The City will be holding an open house for residents to come view the plans and ask questions of City staff from 7-8:30 p.m. on Monday, April 19, at Twin Oaks Town Hall, located at 1381 Big Bend Road. 

If you are unable to attend the open house, you can still provide feedback on the project by completing this short online survey. Paper copies of the survey are also available at Twin Oaks Town Hall during regular business hours.
