The city of Little Rock used its $28,542 award for an educational BikePed Friendly Driver program, focusing on drivers’ rights and responsibilities to keep cyclists and pedestrians safe.

The Morrilton Parks and Recreation Department used its $4,325 grant to install several hammock parks throughout town, offering a relaxing environment for residents.
