Project Grant
Overview
Grant Description
Application purpose: The project will fund the construction of approximately 5.2 miles of shared-use trail including safety treatments.
Will be built from Meandering Way in Dallas to Shiloh Road in Plano and will directly connect to several SILVER LINE rail station platforms.
Activities performed: The project will construct segments of an approximately 12-foot-wide paved multi-use trail and will include (at various locations) the installation of safety treatments for at-grade roadway/rail crossings, traffic signals, median cuts, non-active warning signage, rectangular flashing beacons (RRFB), and roadway striping.
The project will also include building sidewalk connections to the trail, utility relocation at Custer Road, storm water pollution prevention plan mitigations, retaining walls, and drainage improvements.
Expected outcomes: The trail project will provide direct access to three of the nine SILVER LINE rail stations currently under construction: UTD Station (at the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) campus in Richardson) and 12th Street and Shiloh stations in Plano and their surrounding transit-oriented developments (TOD).
Intended beneficiaries: DART commuters.
Subrecipient activities: None.
