Wednesday, June 1st, 2022
In April 2022, the Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) awarded a total of 17 projects valued at approximately $182,271,320.
The largest single investment, worth approximately $11 million, was awarded to Georgia Bridge and Concrete, LLC. This bridge construction project will construct two bridges and approaches on SR 23 over Brier Creek and Brier Creek Overflow in Burke County. This contract, along with four other bridge construction contracts, represents 47 percent of the awarded funds.
The second largest contract is a resurfacing project worth approximately $7 million. This project was awarded to C.W. Matthews Contracting Company, Inc and will consist of 6.757 miles of milling, inlay and plant mix resurfacing on SR 141 from north of McGinnis Ferry Road to south of SR 9 in Forsyth County. This contract, along with four other resurfacing projects, represent 44 percent, or approximately $24 million, of the awarded funds.
The remaining 9 percent is allotted for safety projects at various locations throughout the state.
A Design-Build project was awarded to CW Matthews Contracting/ ICE Consulting, LLC in the month of June worth approximately $50 million. This SR 400 Phase I Design-Build project was pulled forward as part of a phased delivery of the planned SR 400 Express Lanes project to leverage a portion of $184 million INFRA grant Georgia DOT received to relieve congestion along this corridor. As part of the project, three bridges – Pitts Road, Roberts Drive, and Kimball Bridge Road – will be replaced with a raised profile to accommodate the future SR 400 Express Lanes. Additionally, multiuse paths will be incorporated into the new bridges in partnership with the City of Sandy Springs and the City of Alpharetta. The construction of the Pitts Road and Kimball Bridge Road bridges will require a detour. To learn more about this project, please visit: http://www.dot.ga.gov/PS/Innovative/DesignBuild.
