The Wapello City Council has approved a new sidewalk improvement plan aimed at upgrading pedestrian access throughout the downtown district. The project includes replacing cracked concrete, adding ADA‑compliant ramps, and improving drainage along key storefronts. City leaders say the upgrades are part of a broader effort to make downtown more walkable and attractive to new businesses. Construction is expected to begin in late spring, with most work scheduled during off‑peak hours to minimize disruptions.
