JACKSON, MI – Jackson’s east side will see upgrades thanks to a nearly $4 million federal grant. During a Tuesday, April 21 Jackson City Council meeting, City Engineer Troy White presented plans to reconstruct Jackson’s East Side Commerce Corridor, which connects downtown with Page Avenue and U.S. 127. The corridor is a combination of Washington, Elm and Page avenues. “That’s why it qualified for the grant that we got. It moves a lot of cars,” White said.
