Middleburgh Village Plans to Replace More Sidewalks

MIDDLEBURGH - Middleburgh village officials expect to replace more sidewalks in 2026.

At their year-end meeting on Monday, December 29, board members transferred $20,000 into the sidewalk replacement fund for the new year.

Mayor Tim Knight said the village is going to put out an RFP to replace sidewalks on upper Railroad Avenue from the firehouse to Sheldon Avenue later this year.

The village has replaced several sidewalks over the last few years.

Last August, Scribner Avenue residents received new sidewalks.

The village received two bids for the work last summer. The low bid was from Schoenecker Construction at $24,684 and the other bid was $29,000 from MSL Construction. Board members awarded the bid to MSL in August.

The Scribner Avenue sidewalk replacement project was four feet wide by six inches deep. There is one blind detector tile at the corner. The sidewalk is 375 feet with no curb.

In 2024, the village replaced sidewalks on Wells and Danforth Avenues, and Lower Grove Street.
