Provide input on the city's wayfinding
We are embarking on the development of a citywide wayfinding program. The new system will help people find their way and encourage visitors to discover our attractions and community assets. We are currently beginning the Discovery Phase of the project. During this stage, the consultants will be gathering information that will help inform the design of the system. We invite you to take this survey to share information about how people find their way around Anna.

Rosamond Parkway is open
We are excited to announce Rosamond Parkway to US 75 is now open. The roadway serves as a critical East/West connection between US 75 and SH 5 in northern Anna. Additionally, it provides a direct connect to Anna High School, improves traffic circulation at the high school and middle school, and will help relieve congestion at FM 455.

The city had a Public-private partnership through a subdivision improvement agreement with DR Horton, which provided $8,459,774.38 in funding for the construction of Rosamond Parkway to US 75, major water system improvements, and a trunk sewer line serving north central Anna.
