On January 8, 2025, the City Council authorized a professional engineering services contract with Gresham Smith, most highly qualified proposer of four, to develop preliminary engineering; environmental; final engineering/design; plans, specifications, and estimates; and construction documents for the reconstruction and widening of sidewalks with the installation of pedestrian street lights, and the reconstruction/upgrade of the crosswalks and associated traffic signal infrastructure on Camp Wisdom Road from US 67 to Westmoreland Road in the city of Dallas for CSJ 0918-47-368 by Resolution No. 25-0122.
