🚸 Making Forrest City’s streets safer and more visible! 🚸
ARHOP is partnering with the City of Forrest City for safer streets. Our campaign is focused on repainting existing speed bumps, repairing damaged ones, and adding a few new crosswalks in key areas to improve safety for pedestrians and drivers alike.
Sometimes small improvements make a big difference. Better visibility helps drivers slow down and helps families, students, and seniors cross the street more safely.
