About The Project
The Transforming the Forks to Freedom Corridor project is funded by a $24,570,000 federal BUILD grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation. In partnership with The City of Natchez and the Mississippi Department of Transportation, the grant will address infrastructure and business-lifestyle connectivity needs within the Devereux Drive, St. Catherine, and East Franklin corridors, as well as Downtown areas.
The Scope
Building upon the City’s official 2018 Downtown Master Plan, which reflects both professional planning and extensive community visioning and engagement, the project will improve:
- Transportation, pedestrian safety, and accessibility;
- Enhance quality of life and aesthetics for residents and visitors;
- Strengthen economic opportunities and tourism; and
- Better connect people to jobs, education, and cultural heritage assets.
