A paving industry group has named a Georgia road project the best rural divided highway concrete project in the nation for 2010.

The project, designed by Georgia Department of Transportation engineers, added a third lane to nine miles of I-95 both northbound and southbound, and rebuilt several bridges and ramps. It was one of the final pieces of an 18-year effort to widen all of I-95 along Georgia’s coast, a 113-mile job costing more than $1 billion and completed last year, according to DOT.

The award is one of several the American Concrete Paving Association gives for different kinds of projects.
