The City of Fayetteville now has a total of 316 miles of sidewalks citywide, with the most recent 5.65 miles being finished in 2025. This year, the City plans to continue expanding connectivity with an investment of $6 million for an additional 9.33 miles of sidewalks, funded by City Capital Funds, the 2022 voter-approved GO Bond and other grants.
Investment in connectivity continues as Fayetteville grows with a focus on pedestrian safety and accessibility through the partnership with the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT).
Additionally, as part of the City's ongoing commitment to creating a more walkable city and connecting neighborhoods, five crosswalks were installed at Langdon Street, Seabrook Road, Adams Street, Blue Street, Plymouth Street, Clinton Road and Black and Decker Road to provide safe crossing in high-traffic areas.
The City and NCDOT partnered closely to enhance pedestrian infrastructure at state-maintained intersections by installing and improving 10 pedestrian signals and crosswalks. These included five signals on Bragg Boulevard, three signals on Skibo Road and two signals on Yadkin Road.
While the City makes strides to expand its pedestrian network by improving mobility and connectivity through investments, residents are always encouraged to practice best pedestrian safety practices.
