Development of a North Oak Cliff Transportation System Network Plan
North Oak Cliff has a unique blend of old and new in housing, retail, and dining destinations. To capitalize
on this opportunity, we have identified the need for a public transportation planning effort that reflects
a thoughtful integration of mixed-use and mixedincome
developments to create a model environment.
In addition, the planning area is more than just reaching
across the river from downtown. It is an area
bounded by the River, to IH 35, south to Jefferson
Boulevard, and west to Westmoreland Road.
Contract a professional transportation engineering /
planning firm with an expertise in creating new urban
environments and sustainable neighborhoods through
the development of an implementation plan of network
improvements, investment opportunities, proposed urban
design regulatory changes and urban thoroughfare
design standards.
The Plan will provide a “knitting together” of current transportation and land use plans and stakeholder
and developer interest. This economic development project will analyze and prioritize projects within
the planning area and provide urban design standards and recommended regulatory changes to sustain
the area. The Plan will support the developer interest as well as create a basis for capitalizing on
new urban renewal project funding at all levels of government.
