In October 2014, a roughly half-mile section of Commonwealth Drive was extended from the Longview Rec. Center to Wall Street, making a full connection between U.S. 31 and Duplex Road. Sidewalks also were installed. The road extension was made possible through a public-private partnership that allowed the majority of the roadway to be built by private developers. The road extension has helped to take traffic off of busy U.S. 31.
