The City of North Little Rock strives to build and maintain roads, sidewalks, and paths that make it safe and easy to get around our city and connect to surrounding areas, no matter which mode of transportation you use – walking, wheeling, biking, driving, or public transit.
In 2009, the City Council passed a Complete Streets resolution to ensure new development is built to accommodate all modes of transportation.
