GDOT: concrete rehab planned on I-75 at I-675
Georgia DOT has a project later this year for concrete rehabilitation on I-75. The project extends between SR 54 / mile 233 and Walt Stephens Road / mile 226, including the section where Interstate 75 merges with I-675.
The project should improve stormwater run-off and decrease the standing water on rainy days. The interchange has been the site of approximately one dozen tractor-trailer incidents, like the one pictured, since October.
The Hampton city council approved the first reading for Jim Chapman Communities to build active-adult townhomes along state route 20. The project is planning two-hundred-fifty market-rent units. Learn More
