This project consists of the construction of four passing lanes on State Route 10 in Oglethorpe and Wilkes County. Passing lane 1 is westbound from Milepost 15.3 to 16.2 in Oglethorpe County with additional widening on the north side. Passing Lane 2 is eastbound from Milepost 13.7 to 15.0 in Oglethorpe Couty with additional widening on the south side. Passing Lane 3 is eastbound from Milepost 0.00 to 1.5 (Wilkes County) with additional widening on the south side. Passing lane 4 is eastbound from Milepost 5.5 to 7.0 (Wilkes County) with additional widening on the south side. The proposed construction will provide three 12' lanes with 10' rural shoulders (4' of which is paved). On a portion of passing lane 1, traffic will be detoured utilizing an on-site detour to correct the vertical geometry of the existing roadway. For the remainder of Passing lane 1 as well as the entire portions of Passing Lane 2-4, traffic will be maintained on the existing alignment during construction.
