Drivers can expect lots of changes to 15th Street in coming weeks
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Crews are preparing to change the lane configuration of 15th Street as part of a project to widen the road from two lanes to four lanes.
On Thursday, the contractor began installing the topcoat of asphalt.
In the coming weeks, drivers can expect the lane configuration to shift multiple times as crews ensure the entire project receives a fresh topcoat.
The road will remain open to traffic in both directions.
Other construction items include concrete medians, signage and pavement markings.
The Georgia Department of Transportation expects the project to be complete by October if the weather cooperates.
Overall, the project runs from Milledgeville Road to Government Road in Augusta.
