BACKGROUND: The City of Fayetteville has received a total of $1,210,534 in federal-aid funding through the Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission -Transportation Alternatives Program for the construction of the Drake Street Trail Connection. The funding was awarded in three funding cycles: • August 2023: $500,000 (recognized by resolution 271-23) • June 2024: $500,000 • June 2025: $210,534 In November 2023, a contract was approved with Crafton-Tull and Associates by resolution 236- 23 for the design of the Drake Street Trail Connection. The project is now fully designed and has been through the Federal-aid process and approved by the Arkansas Department of Transportation to proceed with construction. DISCUSSION: The Drake Street Trail Connection will repurpose excess space in the existing four-lane section of Drake Street to construct a two-way protected trail extending west from College Avenue. From the western terminus of Drake Street, a new trail segment will be built to connect directly to Gordon Long Park and the Razorback Regional Greenway. The proposed trail will span approximately 4,376 linear feet, creating a continuous, safe, and accessible corridor for both pedestrians and cyclists. This connection will directly serve approximately 2,000 residents and 266 businesses located within a half-mile of the trail, linking neighborhoods east of Scull Creek with key destinations including Gordon Long Park and the regional greenway system. This trail connection is designed to serve people of all ages and demographics, particularly those who rely on walking, biking, or public transportation due to limited or no access to a personal vehicle. By enhancing non-motorized transportation options, this project supports the City's goals for equity, sustainability, and improved quality of life. Bid #25-36 was opened publicly on April 22nd, 2025, with five bidders providing bids. Grant Garrett Excavating Inc. being the lowest responsive bidder and the bid tabulation is included. The bid amount is within the engineers’ estimate and within the amount of certified funds allowed. The contract time is 240 days for final completion. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: Funding for the construction of the Drake Street Trail in total amount of $1,658,910.80 with contingency is from federal-aid funding in the amount of $1,201,534 plus the 20% local matching funds and contingency allocated from the trail CIP. $500,000 in federal aid funding was recognized in December of 2023 by resolution 271-23. The attached budget adjustment recognizes $500,000 and $210,534 for a total of $710,534 and establishes $100,000 in project contingency. The construction will be managed by city staff.
