Painted Tree | Taylor Burke

Taylor Burk Drive is the main artery of Painted Tree, tying together six adjoining phases of the community with a single thoroughfare built for cars, walkers, and everyone in between.  

Along the roadway, a wide decomposed granite walking path runs on one side and a generous sidewalk on the other, framed by lighting, irrigation, landscaping, and signage that give the corridor its finished, welcoming feel. Delivering it took careful coordination: the road had to be sequenced with a major sanitary sewer trunk line and with construction across every adjoining phase, while retaining walls, perimeter fencing, screening, electrical meters, and signage all had to come together in step.

Traffic systems were part of the same effort, with stoplights at Hardin and a traffic circle at Wilmeth brought online along the roadway.

The result is a fully integrated corridor that moves people safely through Painted Tree and connects its neighborhoods into one community.
