Franklin Associates

Since our inception, Putting People First has always been our utmost core value and promise. But what does it mean to put people first?

Putting People First means we lead with a commitment to deliver people-focused solutions, assure individuals have the appropriate access and information to engage in key services throughout our communities, and we build open and honest communication with citizens of each community in which the firm works.

When we put people first, we ensure decisions made are guided by the needs of the people we serve. This is our commitment to creating lasting values through integrity, trust, and excellence.

Franklin Associates facilitated BREC's final public meeting on the City-Brooks Master Plan.

BREC's master plan is aiming to create a long-term vision for the City-Brooks Community Park, including golf course improvements, additional parking, and expanded green space. Based on public engagement, the master plan will define and implement feedback to the efforts of creating an environment serving the people who visit City-Brooks.

Franklin Associates was proud to facilitate the groundbreaking ceremony of MOVEBR's Nicholson Segment 1 Project yesterday!

This event celebrated the launch of transformational work that will improve safety, mobility and connectivity along one of Baton Rouge's busiest transportation corridors. The project widens Nicholson Dr. from two to four lanes and creates a shared use path for pedestrians and cyclists, as well as creating new U-turn lanes, bulb-outs and a median.

Franklin looks forward to continuing to support this MOVEBR program that helps ensure this corridor serves the community well for decades to come.
