The Town of Cary has notified Lochmere that they plan to install an extension of the sidewalk along a section of Lilly Atkins Road. The sidewalk will extend from the current Lochmere asphalt trail opposite the tennis courts along to Maltland Dr.

The good news for Lochmere is that this will include a crosswalk from Clubwood Lane in the Whisperwood neighborhood of Lochmere across Lilly Atkins to the Recreation Club facilities.

The Board is working with the Town of Cary on adding a short sidewalk from that crossing into the existing sidewalk by the tennis courts.

Because the Town of Cary is needing to have some temporary and permanent easements for the sidewalk, the Association is going to be compensated financially which will offset any costs involved to add the sidewalk into the Recreation Club.

The crosswalk is near a slight bend in the road so the Town is looking to add some kind of LED warning signs for drivers.

The project is expected to be started sometime in 2024 but an exact date is not known yet.

We will post updates as we know more.  Please direct any questions or comments to Community Manager, Andy Siouville, at 919-233-7640 ot This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
