Re:
Traffic
and
Parking
Studies
for
the
Dallas
Arboretum
(Project
No.
11039)
The
Dallas
Arboretum
has
demonstrated
its
commitment
to
its
neighbors
and
the
city
by
more
than
meeting
the
requirements
set
out
in
the
1988
Planned
Development
Ordinance
by
both
monitoring
the
traffic
and
parking
impacts
of
major
events
and
by
initiating
measures
to
mitigate
problems.
The
Arboretum
is
aggressively
pursuing
measures
today
to
discourage
its
visitors
from
encroaching
into
the
adjacent
neighborhoods
and
to
maintain
a
high
level
of
traffic
service
along
Garland
Road.
No
other
institution
in
the
city
has
been
subjected
to
the
scrutiny
that
has
been
imposed
upon
the
Arboretum
nor
has
any
institution
been
more
concerned
about
meeting
its
responsibilities
to
its
neighbors
and
the
city.
The
initial
traffic
study
was
commissioned
by
The
Dallas
Arboretum
in
1987
as
a
part
of
the
master
planning
process.
Since
that
time,
fourteen
additional
studies
have
been
conducted.
All
have
had
as
their
common
goal
measures
to
minimize
the
traffic
impact
to
its
neighbors
of
special
events
and
to
optimize
traffic
access
and
parking
for
its
visitors.
