PROJECT INTRODUCTION
The LBJ/Skillman Urban Planning Initiative is a joint undertaking of the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) and the City of Dallas to create a new urban plan at the intersection of LBJ Freeway and Skillman Street. The study area encompasses approximately 700 acres centered on the reconfiguration of the at-grade streets and the LBJ/Skillman realignment. Begun as a community led initiative, this study seeks to address the underutilized land, vacant retail, isolated DART station and confusing traffic patterns currently present within the study area. The planning initiative will identify key area assets to incorporate into a holistic area plan addressing community needs and recommended strategies to attract new development to the area in association with both the current Skillman alignment and the proposed TxDOT redesign.

PARCEL UTILIZATION Parcel utilization is a measure of an areas or parcels ripeness for revitalization and / or redevelopment. It reflects the ratio of improvement value to total value
When the land value represents a disproportionate share of total value, these parcels often become targets for redevelopment or assembly for new development Within the Study Area, the majority of parcels that are under-utilized (another measure of properties not being use for their highest use) are located south of Highway 635, however, there are instances north

Complete Street Initiative can be possible consideration/benefit for LBJ/Skillman Study Area
Long term planning section includes pedestrian path, bicycle lane, median planting, street furniture & storm water retention measures
The intent of Dallas Complete Streets Initiative is to ensure that the citys thoroughfares are developed and redeveloped as an important part of the overall livability of Dallas. The Citys Complete Street program pursues the goal that Dallas roadway network should be accessible to everyone, whether young or old, motorist or bicyclist, walker or wheelchair user, bus rider or shopkeeper.
