City of Fort Walton Beach

The City of Fort Walton Beach has teamed up with Kimley-Horn & Associates to conduct a Community Workshop aimed at gathering valuable input from residents regarding concerns and transportation priorities within the Ferry Park Neighborhood. 

  • The workshop is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, May 24, from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the Public Works Field Office located at 7 Hollywood Blvd. N.W.

With a focus on engaging the community and fostering collaboration, the workshop seeks to encourage residents to actively participate in shaping the future of their neighborhood. The aim is to identify areas of concern and explore potential improvement alternatives as part of the ongoing Ferry Park Neighborhood Traffic Study.

Residents attending the workshop will have an opportunity to interact directly with the project team from Kimley-Horn & Associates. Their input will play a vital role in identifying specific locations within the neighborhood that require attention and suggesting potential solutions. 

  • Looking ahead, the City plans to host a second community workshop at a later date. During this follow-up event, the results of the Ferry Park Neighborhood Traffic Study will be shared, providing context for any proposed improvements.
