Information provided by Casto states that improvements are slated for 10 existing crosswalks located near Sandpiper Beacon Beach Resort, Pier Park, Sharky s Beachfront Restaurant, Origin at Seahaven, Runaway Island, Casa Loma, Days Inn by Wyndham Panama City Beach, M.B. Miller County Pier, Grand Panama Beach Resort and Churchwell Drive.
A previous crosswalk near Richard Jackson Boulevard and the Shoppes at Edgewater also is being reinstalled.
Casto added that the crosswalks will be repainted, press buttons will be replaced and flashing lights will be installed.
He also said the city will begin to accept bids for the project next month and start construction sometime this summer. It will use about $250,000 from the city s community redevelopment fund to pay for the work.
