White hall sidewalks (TAP-21) (S)

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $330,000 to the Arkansas Department of Transportation on June 4, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to construct approximately 1,940 linear feet of sidewalk infrastructure connecting Dollarway Road to Taylor Elementary School in White Hall, Arkansas. This formula grant award supports pedestrian infrastructure improvements, which constitute an eligible activity category under the Highway Planning and Construction program that prioritizes multimodal transportation network development and enhanced public accessibility.

The project delivers critical pedestrian connectivity infrastructure that extends active transportation access to an educational facility, aligning with the program's emphasis on bicycle and pedestrian projects as exceptions to standard functional classification requirements. As a formula grant administered through Arkansas's state transportation system, the project follows established FHWA oversight protocols and must comply with applicable environmental review and design standards before construction commencement.
