Close the Loop Public Forum

What’s It About?
The City of Little Rock Public Works Department, Civil Engineering Division, will present plans for the Arkansas River Trail – Cantrell Road Connection. This key segment between Water Works Road and LaHarpe Boulevard will complete a vital missing link in the trail system, helping to Close the Loop for safer, continuous access along the River Trail.
This is the section of the trail between Bruce Moore Drive (formerly Arch St.), behind City Hall, to the Gill Street Bridge west of Dillard’s Headquarters on the north side of Cantrell Road.
City representatives will be available to discuss the design, answer questions, and collect feedback from the public.
Why It Matters
Completing the Arkansas River Trail enhances connectivity, safety, and recreation for all users—cyclists, runners, and pedestrians alike. Your input helps ensure that this community project reflects the needs of everyone who enjoys our trail system.
