All walks shall be cross-sloped a minimum of 1/4 inch vertical per foot horizontal and installed with the back edge elevation equal to that of the edge of pavement of adjacent roadways. This may require regrading the proposed sidewalk area.

If sidewalk installation encroaches on existing open swales or cuts off roadside drainage in any way, the drainage route shall be piped with a proper size and type of pipe, to be approved by the town's Engineer.

Base course material shall be installed to extend six inches outside the limits of the proposed sidewalks. Stone base material shall be thoroughly compacted by use of a minimum two-ton roller until no movement is observed ahead of the roller.
