There are many ways to support businesses during public works construction projects, including: 1) involving businesses in the planning process; 2) maintaining convenient access by developing alternate access routes; 3) advertising so that customers know that businesses are open during construction; and 4) scheduling road construction activities to accommodate business needs. Some cities have developed marketing campaigns to help keep customers in touch with businesses through a construction period; others have established community development corporations to provide financial assistance and business consulting services to impacted businesses.
