Norwalk photos: Sidewalk do over

NORWALK, Conn. — A Norwalk citizen took the photos above recently; it may seem counterintuitive but at left is the “before” picture and at right is the “after” picture.

“Two weeks ago, brand new handicap sidewalk access panels, like the one pictured above, were installed on the corners of Canfield Avenue and Shorehaven Road and then ripped off for repaving. Seems like quite a waste of money,” the citizen said.

“Sure,” Norwalk Director of Communications Michelle Woods Matthews wrote. “We took the opportunity to address drainage to the road and decided to regrade the street. Therefore, those ramps will be rebuilt to meet new elevation. This project is active and should be completed soon.”
