Planning Assumptions

  1. There is a present market-driven demand for commercial development along Independence Boulevard.

  2. We want to protect the current level of service for traffic flow on Independence Boulevard (i.e. its functionality as a bypass connector between 460 and 221) to the greatest possible extent.

  3. A large 48 acre property near the intersection of Orange and Independence will be developed as a commercial/residential project.

  4. Development along the Independence corridor will directly impact Centertown both positively and negatively.

  5. Two traffic lights will be installed along Independence. One at its intersection with Freedom Lane and one at Orange Street.

  6. Lowry Street will be used as a primary access road for future development (both residential and non-residential).

  7. Freedom Lane will be extended across Lowry Street into the Wal-Mart shopping center in Bedford County.
