Jackson County is currently in the process of creating and adopting a countywide transportation plan that will assist in defining transportation needs, goals, and priorities.
The plan, county officials say, will include an assessment of transportation project needs and recommendations for transportation improvements to foster a healthy, livable and successful community.
To provide the community with more information about the project, and to gather public input, the county will have a booth set up at the following public events throughout the county:
October 20, 2018, from 11 AM to 1 PM at the Black Pot Cooking Festival, Shields Ethridge Farm - 2355 Ethridge Road, Jefferson
October 20, 2018, from 2 PM to 4 PM at the Bands, Brews, and BBQ on Main Street in Commerce - 1645 S. Elm St., Commerce
October 20, 2018, from 5 PM to 7 PM at the Fretting the Foothills Festival on Braselton Town Green - 9224 Davis Street, Braselton
October 25, 2018, from 8:30 to 1 PM at the Jackson County Government and City of Jefferson Employee Health Fair, in the Jefferson Civic Center
The public may also provide input by going to the county's interactive Public Input site where you can leave comments, suggestions, and identify potential improvement areas. An online survey is currently available and will remain posted through December 24, 2018: https://publicinput.com/3112
