Contract for traffic change at SR 3675 and Mount Zion awarded

The Georgia Department of Transportation has awarded  Vertical Earth, Inc. the contract to construct a Restricted Access U-Turn  or RCUT at the intersection of State Route 365 and the cross street Mount Zion Road.  There were six bidders for the project.

The project is part of the Quick Response Program which allows Georgia DOT to quickly identify, approve and construct small traffic operations safety projects on the state route system. 

Mount Zion Road at State Route 365 is one of several intersections that have been identified for an RCUT to improve traffic flow and safety. Several RCUTs have already been installed along the 365 corridor.

Work on the project should begin shortly, GDOT officials announced.]

The intersection has been the site of numerous crashes, including a wreck that recently took the lives of a Hall County Deputy’s wife and children.
