BACKGROUND
The Land Use Study for the Dallas Executive Airport approved by Dallas City Council on December 13, 2017, included recommendations for streetscape improvements around the airport property based on feedback from residents in the community. The improvements are intended to provide a more walkable neighborhood and improve pedestrian circulation to enhance pathways and bike connectivity to other City trails and recreation within the vicinity.
The scope of the original contract authorized on November 13, 2019, included the development of standards for the design and construction of sidewalks, bicycle trails, landscaping, pedestrian lighting, wayfinding signage and other related improvements for roadways immediately adjacent to the airport.
