Pompano Beach CRA Winner for Best Transportation Transit Enhancement in the 2020 FRA Awards
The Pompano Beach CRA is proud to announce that the Atlantic Boulevard Bridge Enhancement is the 2020 winner of the Best Transportation Transit Enhancement category at the annual Florida Redevelopment Association (FRA) Awards, which were bestowed on November 19, 2020.
Focused on creating a sense of community and adding art elements to the transportation in Pompano Beach, the Pompano Beach CRA developed a bridge that would serve as a landmark as well as a sense of place and destination whether traveling by land or water. This project serves multi-functional uses with its nautical-themed infrastructure. Elements included in the enhancement include grand bridge entrances, repurposed pedestrian walkways, and tender house facade improvements. It is now a symbolic welcome for residents and visitors.
