County SR 32 Interchange Economic Development Plan

This eastern gateway to Crawfordsville and Montgomery County had development opportunity, but the lack of infrastructure and zoning controls was limiting interest.  HWC led planning for interchange development, which promoted key actions by the county.  First, the county initiated their first comprehensive plan and later adopted the first zoning controls for the county.  Later, infrastructure planning for the interchange was authorized.  As a result of implementing HWC’s recommendations, the county was able to attract a $138 million investment and 300 jobs at the interchange.

Thoroughfare Plan

As a result of several transportation projects proposed in the county and region, the City of Franklin sought to capitalize on these opportunities by updating its thoroughfare plan. The city hired HWC to facilitate this planning process which centered on detailed traffic modeling based on various thoroughfare network and land use scenarios. It also identified flexible design standards to effectively implement complete streets policies. The plan ultimately led to development of the Interstate 65 gateway along the King Street corridor which has attracted new private investment in this district.
