Good infrastructure strengthens more than roads, it strengthens communities.
West Walnut Street is a great example of how thoughtful design can improve safety, connectivity, and access for everyone who uses the corridor.

Through traffic calming measures, protected bike lanes, and enhanced pedestrian features, this transformation creates a safer, more comfortable street for the surrounding neighborhood.

We’re proud to support infrastructure investments that strengthen communities and improve everyday experiences, especially during Infrastructure Week.

The Daytona Beach Main Street Arch Pedestrian Bridge has welcomed visitors to the shoreline for nearly 90 years. Today, this iconic structure has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its character while improving its structural integrity for generations to come.

We’re proud to have partnered with The City of Daytona Beach Government to help bring new life to this meaningful community asset, an effort that has been recognized as an American Public Works Association Public Works Project of the Year.

Projects like this reflect the lasting impact of public works investments, preserving history while supporting the communities they serve.

This week, we celebrate National Public Works Week, and the people, projects, and partnerships that keep our communities moving forward.

This year’s theme, “Rooted in Service, Powered by Community,” reflects the deep commitment behind public works. From highly visible infrastructure like roads and bridges to the essential systems that deliver clean water and manage stormwater, this work keeps communities safe, connected, and resilient.

At GRAEF, we’re proud to partner with communities to plan, design, and deliver infrastructure that enhances quality of life and builds a stronger future for generations to come.

Thank you to all public works professionals for your dedication, innovation, and service!
