The business group has submitted a series of planning applications to City of York Council to install permanent festoon lighting for six snickleways.
They will also undergo a deep clean, receive cigarette bins, with some receiving artistic murals to explain their historic significance.
The snickleways to benefit include Popes Head Alley, Le Kyrk Alley, Nether Hornpot Lane, Finkle Street, Coffee Yard and Lunds Court.
The York Snickleways Project is supported by grants from the Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner, Safer York Business Partnership, and York Civic Trust.
It follows consultation on the scheme early this year and the project being listed in the coming year’s BID programme and announced at its recent AGM.
