The Henry County Board of Commissioners approved a budget amendment that frees up more than $1 million for resurfacing, widening and surface treatment on various county roads.

The money comes from leftover SPLOST funds for 30 projects that are already completed in four commission districts. The board designated $100,000 for the widening of Rock Quarry Road and another $8,406 for work on Bill Gardner Parkway. Also approved by the commissioners was a budget amendment transferring $1,173,241 to the intersection improvement project at Simpson Mill Road and Hampton-Locust Grove Road.

That money comes from the account for a state highway improvement project that will be completed by the Georgia Department of Transportation, according to county staff.
