PASADENA, Calif.- The City of Pasadena Public Works Department has identified damaged sidewalks throughout the city following a comprehensive survey of Pasadena's sidewalk infrastructure. On November 24, 2025, the City Council approved a contract with a construction company for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Sidewalk Improvement Project. The project will remove and replace approximately 25,000 square feet of sidewalk across about 206 locations, all located within CDBG-eligible areas.
Sidewalk repairs are prioritized using criteria developed by the City's Accessibility and Disability Commission. These factors include locations with significant vertical sidewalk displacement, areas with high pedestrian activity, streets with heavy traffic, and locations where ADA-related concerns have been reported by residents. Of the total repair locations identified, approximately 28% are within CDBG service areas.
