NOTICE TO MEMBERS OF THE AUDIENCE
TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE MEETING – JUNE 24TH
TO: Transportation Committee
THRU: Chris Brown, Public Works Director/City Engineer
FROM: Matt Mihalevich, Active Transportation Manager
DATE: 6/16/25
SUBJECT: 2025-996 Drake St. Trail Bid Award
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends award of Bid #25-36 and authorization of a contract with Grant Garrett
Excavating, Inc. in the amount of $1,558,910.80 for the construction of the Drake Street Trail
Connection project from Gordon Long Park to College Avenue, approval of $100,000 in
contingency and approval of a budget adjustment to accept additional Federal-aid
Transportation Alternatives Program funding through the Northwest Arkansas Regional
Planning Commission in the amount of $710,534.00.
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.
2
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.

OUR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCE
Laneshift was founded in 2017 by Ryan Hale. Prior to this, Ryan
worked for over five years at the center of the growth of
Northwest Arkansas’ bike and pedestrian network as a staff
member for the Walton Family Foundation. Through projects
like the development of the Razorback Regional Greenway,
the Back 40 mountain biking trail system in Bella Vista, and
Lake Atalanta in Rogers, AR, Ryan gained valuable experience in
the implementation of robust bike and pedestrian systems
that continue to grow in size and connectivity. Experiences
gained while working at both the regional and project levels
helped serve as a springboard for the launch of Laneshift.

We are passionate about sharing the story of
"connected communities" and educating our
clients how connectivity can transform both
people and places. During our workshop, the
Laneshift team will spend time with city leaders
to educate and inform on the benefits of
creating safe, comfortable and connected
infrastructure as well as the importance of
sustaining a welcoming, accessible and
encouraging culture for active transportation.
We will explore detailed ways that cities can
promote and encourage a more connected
community by prioritizing active transportation
elements which can add value to the local
economy, increase health outcomes and
strengthen their community.
