Infrastructure
Infrastructure here isn’t just a plan—it’s in motion, with systems being built, tested, and made ready to perform.
The Commerce Center was designed for fast delivery and long-term success. With trans-loading freight options, engineered drainage, and strategic access to highways and rail, River Ridge gives companies a site that works on day one. Whether your team is evaluating construction costs, transportation strategy, or risk exposure, the answer here is yes. The land is ready, the approvals are in place, and the clock is on your side.
River Ridge features 26 miles of high-capacity internal roads built for tractor trailers, heavy equipment, and 24/7 operations. These roads connect every major parcel and tie directly into arterial routes leading to SR-265 and I-65. Pavement design, turning radius, and weight loads were planned with industrial users in mind. These are not rural access roads. They’re engineered corridors built to keep freight moving.
The park connects directly to SR-265, with seamless access to I-65, I-64, and I-71. Companies here are just 15 minutes from downtown Louisville and roughly 20 minutes from the UPS Worldport global air hub, offering fast access to key logistics assets. This is a one-day drive to over two-thirds of the U.S. population. For workforce, suppliers, and outbound shipments, nothing is out of reach.
River Ridge is rail-served by OmniTRAX, with Class I access via CSX and Norfolk Southern. Sites adjacent to existing rail corridors are available now, and service coordination is supported by RRDA. Just minutes away, the Ports of Indiana–Jeffersonville connects companies to domestic barge traffic and international ocean carriers. Companies with bulk materials, containerized freight, or international inputs can plug into multiple modes without leaving the park.
The entire park is zoned industrial, with no residential encroachment and no fragmented oversight. The River Ridge Development Authority owns and manages the land, coordinates infrastructure, and has a close woking relationship to Charlestown and Jeffersonville permitting agencies. Site selectors won’t encounter jurisdictional confusion or planning delays. Your timeline is protected. No planning commission, no zoning boards, no city council. Just fast, direct approvals.
The team at River Ridge works hand-in-hand with developers and civil engineering teams to keep development on schedule. River Ridge staff members are already familiar with the site design standards, soil conditions, and infrastructure specs inside the park. From day one, you’re not starting from zero. You’re building on proven ground with proven partners.
Designed by Doers, Not Just Planners
River Ridge was designed by people who understand site and infrastructure planning. You’re not retrofitting a community to fit industrial use. You’re landing in a site made for it.
A Park That Keeps Up With Its Users
Infrastructure here isn’t static. As demand grows, River Ridge invests in improving roads and drainage, extending access, and scaling support systems. That means new users aren’t competing for old capacity. They’re building into a system that evolves with them.
