The SR 21 Sidewalk Extensions project in Rincon, Georgia, is a municipal initiative aimed at enhancing pedestrian infrastructure along a key corridor. The project includes the construction of approximately 1,665 linear feet (0.32 miles) of 4-inch thick concrete sidewalks. Specifically, 830 feet of sidewalk were installed along the southbound lane of SR 21 between Prosperity Drive and North Ridge Drive, while 835 feet were constructed along the northbound lane from the Walmart entrance to Krystal. EMC Engineering Services provided comprehensive support including surveying, civil engineering, permitting, and construction administration. A notable aspect of the project was the coordination of permitting through the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT), ensuring compliance with state regulations. Design features focused on improving pedestrian access through the installation of sidewalks and crosswalks. EMC also addressed stormwater management challenges by incorporating a spillway detail beneath the sidewalk, demonstrating innovative engineering solutions. The project was funded by TSPLOST. Construction began in March 2024 and was completed in September 2024.
