A weighing matrix $W$ of order $n=\frac{p^{m+1}-1}{p-1}$ and weight $p^m$ is constructed and shown that the rows of $W$ and $-W$ form optimal constant weight ternary codes of length $n$, weight $p^m$ and minimum distance $p^{m-1}(\frac{p+3}{2})$ for each odd prime power $p$ and integer $m\ge 1$ and thus $$A_3\left(\frac{p^{m+1}-1}{p-1},p^{m-1}\big(\frac{p+3}{2}\big),p^{m}\right)=2\big(\frac{p^{m+1}-1}{p-1}\big).$$
