Concept: a broad walking path beside native planting and a calmer Munger Boulevard.
Today: the existing roadway and sidewalk on Munger Boulevard, looking south.
Today Concept

A safer, more walkable mile on Munger Boulevard, connecting East Dallas neighborhoods to the Santa Fe Trail, Lower Greenville and Henderson Avenue.

Follow along

Munger Boulevard looking south. Concept image; the final design will come from engineers.

The idea

More connected. More walkable.

A proposed connection for walking and possibly biking on Munger Boulevard, bringing the places we love a little closer together.

Connect

Five historic districts, Garrett Park, the Santa Fe Trail, Lower Greenville and Henderson Avenue.

Calm

Fewer lanes, slower traffic and a protected path for people on foot and, possibly, on bikes. A concept to study, not a final design.

Local

Led by neighbors, with privately funded first steps. Starting with a feasibility study, not construction.

The proposed connection

Follow the Mile.

From the Santa Fe Trail toward Garrett Park, with possibilities to explore beyond it.

Proposed corridor To be studied Santa Fe Trail

About 1.1 miles. The alignment is approximate and will be refined by the feasibility study.

One step at a time

An idea in motion.
Still early.

We’re listening, walking the route and asking questions. The next step is a privately funded feasibility study to understand what’s possible.

Good connections
start with neighbors.

Hear about community walks, new updates and what comes next. Have a question or a thought about the route? We’d love to hear it.

The Munger Mile is led by East Dallas neighbors Erin Covert and Courtney Gage.
