Project Overview

DeShazo Group played a key role in the master planning of the future Parkland Hospital campus, a cornerstone project within the Southwestern Medical District. Working alongside the architectural planning teams, we helped shape a visionary, high-density, transit-integrated medical campus designed to ensure seamless mobility for patients, staff, and emergency operations. Following the completion of the master plan, we delivered the traffic and transportation engineering design elements for the campus, including the design of the new parking garage.
