We’re excited to introduce Walk Matthews, the Town’s new Pedestrian Plan designed to improve walking conditions, identify gaps in our sidewalk network, and guide future pedestrian projects throughout Matthews. Funded in part by the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) Integrated Mobility Division (IMD), Walk Matthews will enable Town staff to fund and construct pedestrian projects efficiently.

As part of this process, we want to hear from our residents. Your feedback helps us understand how you walk around town, where improvements are needed, and what you’d like to see in the future!

Here's how to get involved:
• Fill out our online survey to share your vision for walking in Matthews: engagematthews.com/walk-matthews
• Follow all our social media channels for updates and additional input opportunities

Walk Matthews will provide clear, actionable recommendations to help us build safer, more connected pedestrian infrastructure across our community.

Stay tuned for more updates!

Spring into the Matthews real estate market! 🐦 April closings stats were very similar in Matthews 28105 and 28104 except for median closed prices: $659,250 in 28104 and $550,000 in 28105. This difference lies in the newer housing stock and new construction found in 28104. Thinking of buying or selling a Matthews area home this spring? Call/text 704-905-3935 for a free consultation.
