Sleepy Hollow Road Walkway Project

 News and Information

(July 2022) The Sleepy Hollow Road Walkway project is now in construction phase. On July 20, 2022, a public bid opening was conducted by the County where bidders submitted their bids to perform the walkway construction. The bids are currently under review. A contract will be awarded to a qualified bidder after completion of the bid review. Once the construction contract is executed, the County will send notification letters to all the stakeholders, including residents, about the upcoming construction work. The construction is expected to begin by late Fall of 2022 and completed by Spring of 2024. 

Please be advised that the County Wastewater Division also has a rehabilitation project to upgrade the Holmes Run Pump Station at the intersection of Sleepy Hollow Road and Dearborn Drive. The Wastewater Division’s rehabilitation project is separate from the walkway project. 

The rehabilitation work includes installation of temporary piping along the east side of Sleepy Hollow Road from the pump station to the west of Malbrook Drive. Please visit the project Holmes Run Pump Station Rehabilitation webpage for further information about this project.
