The Newport News Department of Engineering aims to improve access throughout the city by creating a more sustainable and safe pedestrian atmosphere, based on required federal standards. A proposed project will install a five-foot-wide sidewalk along the south side of Briarfield Road from Marshall Avenue to Chestnut Avenue, which will increase pedestrian, multi-use, and accessibility for people with disabilities.
