Project Description:
The project begins in Madison County on SR 72 and continues on new location north of the city of Comer, GA. It ends in Elbert County on SR 72 just east of the Broad River for a project length of 9.65 miles. The project relocates a section of existing SR 72 to bypass the towns of Comer and Carlton. The proposed widening and relocation project will provide four lanes with a raised concrete median and rural outside shoulders then transition into a depressed median for majority of the project before transitioning to a flush median to tie back into existing SR 72 east of the Broad River. The project plans include bike lanes and both a new bridge over the Broad river and maintenance work on the parallel existing historic bridge. There will also be a triple 9¿ X 8¿ concrete bridge culvert conveying Rocky Shoals Creek. The project is part of the Governor¿s Road Improvement Program (GRIP). It has been proposed to stimulate economic growth throughout the state.
