City leaders, along with the project contractor, will be at the Woolmarket Community Center, 13034 Kayleigh Cove, on Thursday at 6 p.m. to brief residents on the project and answer any questions attendees may have.
The Woolmarket sidewalks project will include the installation of 1.25 miles of sidewalks along Woolmarket Road from Lorraine Road to Jim Byrd Road and along Lorraine Road from Woolmarket Road to Nature’s Trail.
