The Dollar General project is located next to Woodville Highway. Traffic flow needed to be carefully considered before construction. We focused our design on ensuring cars and people could move around easily. Because the site was zoned for retail, we could use it for a store. According to local codes, the 10,640-square-foot building requires at least 43 parking spots and a few bike parking spots. Our design meets these needs while keeping traffic moving smoothly and adding the right greenery. We planted trees throughout the site to ensure we met proper landscape requirements.

State Road 8 (SR 8), or Interstate 10 (I-10), is a key road in Northwest Florida. The roadway is used for evacuations, freight movement and everyday traffic. Due to the region’s population growth, the road has become busier, making an expansion necessary. The increased traffic and the road’s important role in emergency evacuations show the need for expanding the roadway’s capacity.
