A key route in the Village of Cumberland is getting an upgrade to enhance safety, improve accessibility, and meet the future demands of the community.
According to the village, the enhancements will run along Penrith Avenue from First Street to Third Street and will also include an underground infrastructure upgrade to increase reliability and reduce maintenance needs.
Council is asking for feedback on the upgrades during a public engagement session that is slated to run until Aug. 11, and they say all opinions are welcome and will be considered.
Other enhancements will improve access to destinations, wider walkways, increased mobility, and smarter parking.
Phase one construction is expected to start in the fall, and the village says phase two will start in the summer of next year.
