River Rail Streetcar Project
Phase Two On the Horizon
Planning for Phase Two is in the early stages. It will connect Phase One with
two major developments - the William Jefferson Clinton Presidential Library,
and the headquarters and Global Village Center of Heifer Project
International. The planned stop for Phase Two will be the old Choctaw
Railway Station at the end of Third Street just east of Interstate 30.
The proposed route of the streetcar will begin at Second and Commerce. Tracks
will be laid in Commerce Street to Third Street, and then along Third
Street to the Choctaw Station. See map. Planning and environmental assessment
should be complete by June 2002.
No Federal or local funds have been pledged to the project yet. The new track and two additional cars will cost an estimated $6 million.
