Project Description:
The City of Kyle will begin construction on the Amberwood ADA Ramp Improvement Project starting Monday, September 29, 2025. Work will include removing and replacing sidewalks, curbs, and ramps throughout the neighborhood to meet current ADA standards and improve pedestrian safety and accessibility.
Amberwood was chosen for ADA ramp improvements because it represents both a high-need and high-impact opportunity for the City’s first year of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding. As a HUD-defined Low-to-Moderate Income (LMI) neighborhood, Amberwood qualifies for these funds, and staff prioritized projects that would provide meaningful benefits to the community. The neighborhood’s infrastructure, now approximately 25 years old, shows signs of wear, with many curb ramps either in disrepair, missing entirely, or no longer meeting current ADA standards. Upgrading the sidewalks and ramps in Amberwood not only enhances accessibility for residents of all ages and abilities but also strengthens connectivity across the neighborhood, supporting safer travel to schools, parks, and local businesses.
The City intends to continue utilizing CDBG funds each year to address the greatest community needs in eligible areas. Sidewalk and accessibility improvements remain a key priority, and staff will evaluate future project locations annually based on demonstrated need, program eligibility, infrastructure conditions, and how proposed improvements align with the City’s broader mobility and capital planning goals.
Closures:
No traffic closures are anticipated during construction. However, drivers are urged to use caution and watch for pedestrians who may need to cross the street or take alternate routes while sidewalk sections are under construction. Pedestrians should also expect to use alternate paths during active work zones.
