New N. Carrollton HAWK signals LIVE!
Crossing the Greenway at North Carrollton has just gotten much safer.
As of this week, there are new pedestrian hybrid beacons (HAWK signals) at this intersection. When activated by pedestrians/cyclists, the lights will flash yellow– alerting drivers to slow down– then turn to a solid red light, like a standard red light. Motorists are required to come to a full stop to allow pedestrians and cyclists to safely cross the street.

“GROW!” Lafitte Greenway Restoration Project Announced: 1,000 Cypress Tree Forest and Pollinator Flower Meadows
Posted by Guerline Camille · April 17, 2023 11:02 AM
March 28, 2022, NEW ORLEANS, LA - Cypress tree forest and pollinator meadows are coming to the Lafitte Greenway! City and community partners are excited to announce “Lafitte Greenway GROW!,” a multi-year restoration project to plant 1,000 Cypress trees in the Greenway’s bioswales and pollinator flower meadows.
Partners & Supporters
GROW! is a landscape restoration project and fundraising campaign led collaboratively by Friends of Lafitte Greenway (Friends), NORD, Parks and Parkways, Sustaining Our Urban Landscape (SOUL), SPROUT NOLA, and Spackman Mossop Michaels. This project is made possible with support from Coypu Foundation Trust established by John S. McIlhenny, One Tree Planted, Spackman Mossop Michaels, and GROW campaign contributors.
Purpose
In order to ensure that the Greenway’s landscape is sustainable, safe, and beautiful over the long-term, and herbicide use is limited, the partners are undertaking this landscape restoration project. Award-winning landscape architecture firm, Spackman Mossop Michaels, designed this adaptive planting and management plan for the Greenway’s bioswales and meadows that will restore and expand our urban tree canopy, restore native plantings, support pollinators, and naturally prevent the overgrowth that has inhibited the bioswales’ functionality and has been a community visibility and safety concern.
