Mayor says pedestrian bridge will connect South Side residents to Stewart Sports Complex
Summary
The mayor described a planned village investment in a pedestrian bridge that will allow South Side residents to cross US 30 to reach the Stewart Sports Complex and trails without using a stoplight, tying the project to earlier Park District expansion work.
The mayor recalled the Fox Valley Park District's expansion of the Stewart Sports Complex and said village leaders are investing in a pedestrian bridge that will enable South Side residents to cross US 30 and access trails and park amenities without needing to use a signalized intersection. He quoted a past police chief who called the complex a "new crown jewel" and framed the bridge as improving safe access.
The mayor presented the bridge as part of broader efforts to improve neighborhood connectivity and park access on both sides of town. He did not provide construction timing, funding details or permitting steps in the remarks.
