Sidewalks in Coffeyville. Coffeyville city commissioners unanimously approved awarding the contract for the Safe Routes to School Grant. The Superintendent of Engineering, Thomas Osborn, tells us about it. Click to listen to Osborn on KGGF airwaves give details of the sidewalk construction on roads near Community Elementary.

Osborne said Coffeyville had a maximum award of $400,000 for this “first” phase of sidewalk construction, and were able to get a bid for just under that, so with the 80-20 grant, the city will pay about $78,000 of the $400,000 project.
