The City of Oxford, Alabama will receive $2,031,133 from the Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration under the Economic Adjustment Assistance (EAA) federal grant program (CFDA 11.307) to improve critical regional infrastructure. Specifically, the funding will support resurfacing Bynum Cutoff Road and improving drainage along the road. Heavy rain events frequently wash out the road, impacting existing industries in Oxford. The infrastructure improvements aim to better serve local businesses and create jobs, advancing the regional automotive cluster and strengthening the regional economy. The award was issued on July 12, 2022 to directly support the City of Oxford in carrying out this infrastructure project benefiting the Anniston, AL area.
