Town of Penfield – Sidewalk Improvements

Five Mile Lane Road, Penfield New York

Client: Town of Penfield, New York
Construction Completion: 2025

Project Services: Land Survey, Civil Engineering, Aerial Photography & Imagery Analysis, Mapping, Floodplain Studies, Design Development, Construction Documentation & Construction Observation

Project Overview

Costich Engineering partnered with the Town of Penfield to design and construct sidewalk improvements primarily along Five Mile Line Road, with connections into Atlantic Avenue. These enhancements improve pedestrian safety, connectivity, and mobility in a corridor that intersects two key thoroughfares. The project also takes into account local watershed conditions and ensures compatibility with surrounding infrastructure.

Project Services Provided

Costich Engineering delivered a full complement of professional services to support the sidewalk project, including:

  • Land Surveying: topographic and boundary surveys to set grades and alignments

  • Civil Engineering: roadway grading, drainage coordination, and sidewalk structural design

  • Landscape Architecture: selecting plantings and integrating the sidewalk into its surroundings

  • Schematic Design & Design Development: early-phase alignment studies and refinement

  • Construction Documentation & Construction Observation: preparation of plans/specs and field oversight through implementation

Project Highlights

    • Majority of sidewalk work concentrated along Five Mile Line Road, with tie-ins at Atlantic Avenue

    • Phased construction to minimize disruption along key intersection

    • Integration of stormwater and drainage considerations given proximity to Ross Brook watershed

    • Design and construction in compliance with NYSDOT and local standards

Project Background

Sidewalk improvements on going; additional project components (culvert extension and pond expansion) scheduled for later phases.
