The Columbia Tennessee Rail Site is now shovel-ready after earning key certifications that could get the property on track for future development.
CTRS has earned dual certification from CSX and the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development, opening the doors for developers to take notice.
Dual certification means that the 225-acre publicly-owned property located off U.S. Highway 412 is now certified as a shovel-ready site for any large manufacturer requiring rail service, according to a recent media release. The development of this new industrial site has been one of the highest priorities of the Columbia City Council,” Columbia City Manager Tony Massey said. “We look forward to the day when there will be major announcement at this site.”
