KINGSTON – The Franklin Street Complete Streets Project in Kingston has reached substantial completion.

The project spans the length of Franklin Street from Broadway to Wall Street, connecting two of Kingston’s most traveled thoroughfares. The project included new sidewalks, ADA-accessible ramps, bicycle infrastructure, crosswalks, and new street trees.

 

“The Franklin Street project is a part of our strategic investment in Midtown Kingston and complements our ongoing safety improvements for pedestrians and cyclists,” said Mayor Steven Noble. “I hope that many children and families traveling to the Hodge Center, the Kingston Library, or elsewhere in the neighborhood will enjoy the safer streetscape.”

 

The project was supported with $750,000 in funding from the New York Department of Environmental Conservation’s Climate Smart Communities Grant Program.

 

Road striping and final signage installation is expected for Monday, December 5, 2022.
