• Abstract:
  The purpose of this research project was to evaluate the implementation issues of sidewalk projects that are funded through various federal programs administrated by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT). This evaluation has identified specific problems through a review of past and current projects in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS), Transportation Enhancements (TE), Pennsylvania Community Transportation Initiative (PCTI) programs and the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) as well as surveys of other departments of transportation and case studies. Recommendations to address identified implementation issues to assist PennDOT and project sponsors with completion of sidewalks projects were made in the areas of project programming and funding applications; project implementation process improvements; and state and local government coordination
