Train Station Traffic Jams

We are 11 months away from the reopening of Peabody Road. With schools back in session, commuters are getting frustrated with the traffic jams occurring during peak hours. 

Although the bumper to bumper traffic seems problematic right now, we have a lot to look forward to once the construction project is over. The Train Station Specific Plan is made up of 3,000 acres and is shared by multiple owners, all of whom have planned development for the area. The Villages Community was permitted 1,860 units, recreational parks, and a shopping center at Air Base Parkway. The Hawthorne Mill Development will provide a diverse community consisting of commercial and recreational amenities. Hawthorne Mill, the larger subdivision, will include hundreds of family lots, retail/residential parcels, and recreational space that will include parks, trails and other public uses. Cooper’s Landing, the second subdivision, will be made up of about 100 family homes ranging in size. Once the construction issue is over, we can look forward to improved transportation and economic growth.  Read the Daily Republic’s full article here.
