GA Stimulus Funds to Be Used on 51 More Road Projects | Metro Atlanta Car Accident Lawyer

The 11 Alive news website recently reported that Governor Sonny Perdue of Georgia has certified more road projects for federal stimulus funding.  A total of 51 projects for roadways will begin, according to an announcement from Gov. Perdue that he would certify the projects Tuesday, May 5.  According to the article, the funds from the stimulus must be spent by June 30, and 95% of them have been spent on over 100 projects.  Among those in the new list are improvements to two intersections on Gwinnett County's Lawrenceville Highway and the Fall Line Freeway bypass in Wilkinson County, as well as other roads requiring bridge repairs or resurfacing.
