Description
This project consists of the installation of new sidewalk in the "North Side" area of Villa Park: an area bounded by Armitage Avenue on the north, North Avenue (Illinois Route 64) on the south, Harvard Avenue on the west, and Ardmore Avenue on the east. The Federal Transportation Control Measures (TCM) Program will provide funding for approximately seventy-five percent (75%) of construction costs.
