The Little Falls Parkway Improvements Project is a Vision Zero safety project that aims to improve bicyclist and pedestrian safety along Little Falls Parkway between Dorset Avenue and Arlington Road by reducing the total number of travel lanes from four to two and installing traffic calming measures. The project also improves bicyclist and pedestrian connectivity along Little Falls Parkway through the installation of a shared-use path and separated bike lanes along the south side of the Parkway and additional modifications to make the interim Capital Crescent Trail crossing permanent.
