ReCover Acadiana partnered with the 24 Hour Citizen Project to create a Safe Pass Under Pass under South College near West Bayou Parkway with new lights, cleanup and plants. 

The project involved planting three maple trees and 1,000 plants. Now it’s safer, cleaner and nicer for all pedestrians and cyclists to cross. 

ReCover Acadiana has planted over 400 trees in public parks and spaces since 2015 with help from grants and volunteers. 

Whether it's instilling pride in a neighborhood through a neighbor-painted mural or improving a construction fence with architectural student sculptures, ReCover knows art brings people together while improving the community and has done many of these projects since 2013. 

Temporary transportation block improvements that demonstrate to the community and elected officials how these changes could permanently impact the community for the better, is our jam. In fact, we've done three since 2015. 

Educating and empowering community leaders about the positive impacts that transportation improvements, public spaces, art and trees can have on our community is our way of sharing ideas to get more people get excited about improving our community. 

ReCover Acadiana Embraced this Space on Bertrand Drive in 2016 and we've been keeping it clean with cleanups year round with volunteers from the community. 

Each September, on national Park(ing) Day, ReCover leads the effort in Lafayette for non-profits and businesses to take over parking spots Downtown to show how much fun could be experienced in a parking space usually taken up by only one car. These temporary parklets led to a parklet ordinance for businesses downtown to install permanent parklets for outdoor dining or simply relax.
