project Details

Improving walkability in Cape Elizabeth

Design efforts for both phases were initiated in 2020 with federal funding, with Phase I proceeding toward a bidding package and Phase II to Plan Impacts Complete (PIC). Sebago presented at a public meeting on behalf of both projects. The design of both segments included a new granite curb with associated drainage, esplanade space for street trees and pedestrian scale lighting, and a six-foot concrete sidewalk. In addition, Sebago completed utility coordination efforts and the survey for Phase I. Phase I required temporary rights to construct, requiring Sebago to complete a right-of-way plan and temporary maintenance easement language for sign-off by the abutter.

Phase I was constructed as Phase II began the right-of-way process. Sebago completed the utility coordination process in tandem and coordinated with the Town and MaineDOT as needed through discussions with the abutters.

Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) were submitted to MaineDOT to receive construction authorization. Sebago aided the Town through the bidding process, ran a pre-bid meeting, responded to Requests for Information (RFI), and aided in awarding the contract to the successful bidder. Construction of Phase II was completed in 2023.
