The historic Park Hill neighborhood is a staple among central Arkansas communities, bustling with a feeling of locality in North Little Rock. As the community aged, so did the roads. In response, Garver provided planning and design services to improve JFK Boulevard, from A Avenue to H Avenue in Park Hill. The services provided included surveying, planning, traffic studies, environmental documentation, landscape design, lighting, pedestrian facilities, and roadway design services. New amenities include streetscape, pedestrian, and intersection and crosswalk improvements; mill and overlay, new landscaped median; new sidewalks; pedestrian scaled street lighting; and green stormwater management enhancements.
These changes are intended to improve walkability and safety for all, particularly at intersections and driveways, promoting a pedestrian-friendly environment. The recommendations from a recent Garver-conducted traffic study have been included into the traffic signal and roadway design plans.
