Yes the Benning Deployments do strongly effect the population of Columbus after all Benning is the largest employer in Metro Columbus. Benning is very important to the Columbus economy while Gordon is a much smaller base as was mentioned it is not as important to the economy of Augusta. Ft. Benning, Ft. Stewart, and Robbins Air Force base do help to carry the communities they are near because of the troop numbers & civillian employment numbers. Good news is the 3rd ID is suppose to begin returning in the summer months. It's hard to exactly balance out would Columbus have experienced a population growth if there were not deployments from the base, but on another note Lee County, AL located across the river from Columbus was in the top 100 places in the U.S. of population growth last year. Also not a drastic increase, but other counties around the area away from Benning did also experience growth.

There is a public meeting on 3/18 to discuss the possible widening of Talbotoon Road between 12th Avenue and Woodlawn Drive. This is a long overdue project in my opinion the congestion on that street in the morning and evenings is ridculous.

Going into Fort Benning Yesterday I looked closely at the construction and it looks like a service road or exit ramp is being built near the Cussetta Road overpass then runs almost a mile down to Victory drive. It appears that route will go overtop Victory Drive then circle back across the top of I-185 and Victory Drive once more then come back down onto the North bound lanes. It is really worth watching because where construction stands now it's hard to determine exactly whats going on. I have been able to see the new lanes on I-185 will run in the previous center median

Has anyone seen a rendering of the new flyovers being constructed at I-185 and Victory Drive? I was down that way this weekend and the bridges are beginning to take shape even though it's difficult to tell exactly how they will run.
