County Awards Mount Kisco First Contract
Under New Complete Streets Program
MOUNT KISCO, NY—Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins joined local officials last week to announce that the first construction award through the county’s Complete Streets Municipal Assistance Program went to the Mount Kisco Streetscape Sidewalk Improvements Phase 3B project.
Preparation for construction of the $2.7 million project is expected to begin in the fall of 2026. The award marks an important milestone as the county’s Complete Streets initiative moves from planning to implementation, with 12 projects selected for design and or construction across Westchester County.
The Complete Streets Municipal Assistance Program will award more than $15 million to municipalities across Westchester County to improve sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, traffic safety, accessibility, streetscapes and bicycle connectivity. The Mount Kisco project will be the first to receive funding for construction, with additional construction and design projects advancing throughout the county. Improvements along South Moger Avenue between Kirby Plaza and Green Street will include reconstructed sidewalks, enhanced pedestrian crossings, ornamental lighting, landscaping and a planted median designed to improve safety and create a more walkable downtown corridor.
Co. Exec. Jenkins said: “This project represents exactly what we envisioned when we launched the Complete Streets Municipal Assistance Program. We are moving from ideas to action by helping our municipalities build safer streets that are accessible to everyone. Mount Kisco is leading the way, and this project is just the beginning as communities across Westchester prepare to bring their own Complete Streets projects to life.”
Mount Kisco Mayor J. Michael Cindrich added: “This project represents years of planning and partnership. We are grateful to Westchester County for helping make this vision a reality. These improvements will enhance pedestrian safety and create a more welcoming environment for everyone who lives, works and visits Mount Kisco.”
