John Shields Elementary School Sidewalk Improvements

The Village of Sugar Grove will soon begin installing new sidewalks to enhance safety and accessibility for our community, particularly for students attending John Shields Elementary School.

Sidewalks will be installed along:

  • North side of Calkins Drive from McCannon Street to Grove Street
  • East side of West Street from Calkins Drive to Maple Street
  • East side of Grove Street from Snow Street to Maple Street

Anticipated Start Date: Week of June 24th (weather permitting)

Estimated Completion: Within 30 days

During this time, please note:

  • Daily closures and temporary loss of driveway access may occur.
  • Specific times and dates for loss of driveway access will be communicated via door hangers and yard signs distributed by the Contractor.

We aim to substantially complete this project before the Sugar Grove Corn Boil.
