SR 4/US 1 FROM S OF SR 147 TO S OF GEORGE HILL ROAD - TIA

complete

The approved concept is proposed to widen and reconstruct US 1/SR 4 from Plant Hatch in Appling County to SR 56 in Toombs County. At the beginning of the project, US 1/SR 4 would be widened on the east side to have four lanes with a 32-44 ft grassed median (32' from the beginning of the project to south of SR 147). The widening would continue on the east side to the end of the project at SR 56, the beginning of EDS-545(24) in Toombs County. Existing right-of-way along US 1/SR 4 varies from 100 feet to 200 feet. The proposed right-of-way would vary from 184 feet to 253 feet for the length of the project. The speed design is 55 mph, and access would be by permit. New parallel bridge structures will be constructed over the Altamaha River, Altamaha River Overflow, Williams Creek, and Cobb Creek. (The existing bridges at these locations will be rehabilitated and widened under bridge project numbers.)
