Georgia DOT seeks input on Ga. 316 improvements

The Georgia Department of Transportation is seeking public input through Wed., Nov. 1 on proposed improvements to the existing at-grade intersections of Ga. 316 at Kilcrease Road and at Carl-Bethlehem Road. These intersections are approximately 3.1 miles apart.

Information related to the proposed projects is available at https://sr316bundle3.scoutfeedback.com/en/Welcome.

In 2015, Georgia DOT announced plans to reconstruct intersections along the Ga. 316 corridor to improve connectivity, reduce vehicle crashes and improve mobility along this corridor.

“Grade separation of these crucial intersections will benefit mobility in the area and add safety through reduced vehicle conflict points. Additionally, the proposed improvements throughout the SR 316 corridor are needed to accommodate anticipated population growth and support economic development,” said Georgia DOT Project Manager, Kathe Ahmed in a statement.

Public comments can be made online, email to P3Division@dot.ga.gov or 404-631-1733.
