Eddyville Industrial Park receives funds for upgrades

Leaders in Eddyville are moving forward with plans to upgrade their industrial park.

That’s according to a news release from the governor’s office, which says the announcement is a result of a long-term development plan to create a rail-served industrial park.

Officials say the development project at Eddyville Industrial Park is designed to bring in new, large-scale companies and encourage smaller-scale industrial growth.

The proposed upgrades will expand the park through the construction of new building pads and utility extension plans to create a premier rail-served industrial park.

The Lyon County location was selected for funding through the Product Development Initiative in 2020.
