Chatham County, in coordination with the City of Savannah and the Coastal Region Metropolitan Planning Organization (CORE MPO), is conducting a study to identify options for the elimination of the railroad crossing on President Street at its intersection with Truman Parkway.

The community is invited to join an upcoming meeting to learn more about both short-term and long-term alternatives, including grade separation options. Meetings will be an open house format.. Attendees will have the opportunity to provide feedback, which will be used to refine the proposed alternatives.

A survey is also available regarding this study.

The study will evaluate the existing and future traffic volumes and needs and the operation and safety conditions of the interchange to develop alternatives and costs to eliminate the at-grade railroad crossing. The study will consider freight, commuter and local traffic, and pedestrian/bicyclist travelers. The study will also account for current and future land use patterns and anticipated continued growth, especially for the industrial areas east of Truman Parkway.
