Florence to apply for Williams Road sidewalk and pedestrian bridge, agrees to 20% local match
Summary
City Engineer Tim Parker was authorized to submit Transportation Alternatives applications for the Williams Road sidewalk and pedestrian bridge project and the board adopted a resolution agreeing to provide a 20% local match if the project is selected.
The Florence Board on Sept. 16, 2025 authorized City Engineer Tim Parker to submit Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) applications to the Central Mississippi Planning & Development District and to the Mississippi Department of Transportation for a Williams Road Sidewalk and Pedestrian Bridge project. The board adopted a resolution agreeing to provide a 20% local match if the project is selected; the motion carried with recorded aye votes from all aldermen.
The minutes record authorizations to pursue TAP funding and a certification that no known legal impediments exist to completing MDOT Transportation Alternatives Program projects in the city. The record does not include estimated total project cost, construction timeline or specific match dollar amount; those details will be determined through the grant application process and future board action.
