Glenna Street, Edmund Boulevard, West 19th Street Roadway Improvements

The City of San Angelo completed roadway accessibility improvements along Glenna Street, Edmund Boulevard, and West 29th Street in Tom Green County. The project passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in May 2026, confirming that construction is complete. This new construction effort focused on enhancing pedestrian safety and compliance at signalized intersections within the San Angelo ZIP code 76903 area.

Project Scope and Design

Freese and Nichols, Inc. served as the design firm of record for this initiative, which was registered with TDLR in August 2025. The scope of work included the installation of 3,402 square feet of new concrete sidewalk, the construction of 28 curb ramps, and the placement of 11 pedestrian poles at signalized intersections. New crosswalk striping was also applied to improve visibility and navigation for pedestrians. Stephen D Macphie acted as the registered accessibility specialist overseeing the project's adherence to state standards.

The estimated cost for the project was $272,000, resulting in a cost of $80 per square foot. This figure is below the county median of $134 per square foot for similar new construction filings in Tom Green County. The scheduled build window was 534 days, which is longer than the county median of 216 days for comparable projects. The project utilized public funds and involved public land, reflecting the City of San Angelo's ongoing investment in local infrastructure.
