The SR225 corridor from 9th St at Dale Ave to Babs Ave has no sidewalks, forcing pedestrians to walk on the roadway or narrow shoulders. This route connects residential neighborhoods to downtown businesses, schools, parks, and services. The lack of sidewalks limits safe, accessible travel, discourages walking, and reduces connections to essential goods, services, and community events.
