The purpose of this event is to provide stakeholders an update of the progress made to date. A short update presentation will be followed by the opportunity for feedback and small group discussions.

In August the second phase of the Victory Drive Corridor Study began, concentrating on an approximate 0.8-mile focus area of the corridor between Ogeechee Road and Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, referred to here as “West End Victory.”

The Victory Drive Corridor Study is a multi-phase planning study that aims to preserve, revitalize and maintain Victory Drive’s historic commemorative landscape and prominence as a signature boulevard. Through a public-private collaboration, this study seeks to develop an implementable plan incorporating context sensitive solutions to balance the transportation and land use demands of a contemporary street.
