Sidewalks: On the Pike are close to four feet wide- Picture II 2018-04-02 - The Pike, Burkesville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. This photo taken in the area of the linked photo, tells a different story about the sidewalk built in the administation of the late Mayor Coy Downey, that "they undulate like a worm and they are only two feet wide." The fact is, as Sidewalk Advocate Mary Ann Loy often says, of the sidewalks, "They work." And they are closer to four feet wide, as the hurriedly photographed illustration above shows, ample space for single file foot traffic both ways. What they need immediately is a little bit of maintenance, to keep the sidewalks clear of debris and allow proper drainage. The cost, a very experienced, very competent contractor tells us, "Practically nothing."
