Pulaski County Bridge Public Facilities Board
The Pulaski County Bridge Public Facilities Board was established in April 2002, for the purpose of overseeing the development, operation and maintenance of bridges in Pulaski County. In 2002, a public involvement planning process was sponsored by the Junction Bridge Collaborative, which consisted of Bridge Public Facilities Board members and representatives of the downtown areas of Little Rock and North Little Rock.
 
The planning process culminated in November 2002, with the River District Charette, an interactive urban design workshop hosted by the UALR Urban Studies and Design program. In early 2003, as a follow on to the River District Charette and the public involvement planning process, the Bridge Facilities Board issued a Request for Qualifications for architectural, planning, and urban design services, and contracted with Zimmer Gunsul Frasca Partnership (ZGF) of Portland, Oregon, to prepare the conceptual design for the bridge and urban designs for the riverfront areas immediately adjacent to the Junction Bridge.
