The Audubon Bridge project, as with all TIMED projects, was strategically chosen to be built in order to stimulate economic growth across Louisiana. By stimulating economic development this will help to strengthen the communities of New Roads and St. Francisville, as well as other communities in this area.
From a policy perspective, economic development can be defined as efforts that seek to improve the economic well-being and quality of life for a community by creating and/or retaining jobs and supporting or growing incomes and the tax base. It typically refers to improvements in a variety of indicators such as literacy rates, life expectancy, and poverty rates.
