Corridor plan eyed for Ottawa US 59 growth north of Kingman Road
Residents and officials spoke at the final hearing on a state city corridor plan for two miles along U S 59 from I 35 to Rock Creek Road. The plan projects heavy mixed use north of Kingman Road with lighter growth south, and may add new access points and a possible truck stop. The city has planning control for the area via interlocal agreement, and the plan now moves to the city commission for final approval.
