Coming out of the Village of Charleston across from the Kidney Center and South Park needs sidewalk and crosswalk to be able to enjoy the park/community center. Speeding cars will kill someone one of these days. Trees blocking the visibility of traffic are also an issue. Soon South and Main will add to the congestion.

Walking

Extend sidewalks south of south park

Walking

There are no sidewalks in this entire neighborhood (S. Fuquay / Pine St / Arnold / Senter / Dickens.) yet there are numerous pedestrians out every day having to walk in traffic. There is an entire section here that has no sidewalks, yet there are daily walkers throughout the area walking in the street. Jeff Wells Trail is lovely, and there’s nice little sidewalk to Caroll Howard Johnson Park, but then there’s noth - ing. Walking from Main Street to the park is treacherous due to curvy road and very little shoulder. Connect the sidewalk from Bent Tree subdivision to Fleming Loop Park. There is a small section which, if completed, would increase safety for strollers, children on bikes, pedestrians, etc. There is a curve in the road making it dangerous to see oncoming traffic for those accessing the park from Bent Tree, Fleming Fields and residences on Fleming Loop Road.

Needs improvement Crosswalk would make getting to Fleming loop park safer for the kids.

I feel like one of the advantages FV has over other towns in the triangle is a pair of wonderful downtowns. Furthermore, I would imagine that a decent percentage of our town lives within walking or biking distance of those. Connecting those neighborhoods with downtown will benefit traffic and the town. There are now three subdivisions on Bowling Road that are not connected with Route 401 sidewalks to Downtown.

This is how I go to the dog park. Believe it or not, it’s easier to cross SW Judd Pkwy than W. Academy St.

Walking

Please add sidewalks to Phelps West Road. It would be so much safer for the walkers in the neighborhoods that come off of that road. Thanks!! Are there any plans to convert this unused railway into a paved greenway trail that leads to downtown Fuquay? It would be an AMAZING asset for the town!!!
