# Georgia Awards Highway Construction Contracts

The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) awarded Griffin Grading and Concrete a nearly $44 million contract to widen 6.5 miles of State Route 31/U.S. 441 in Laurens County, converting the route from two lanes to a four-lane divided roadway and adding a roundabout; completion is expected around September 30, 2029. GDOT also announced smaller east-central district awards, including a $5.28 million resurfacing project on State Route 192 in Emanuel County and a $2.23 million bridge project on Martins Mill Road at Little River in Putnam County. These are awarded projects, not open solicitations, but they may generate subcontracting and supplier demand during delivery.

- The awards cover highway widening, resurfacing, and bridge construction, creating potential work for subcontractors and suppliers in areas such as roadway materials, paving, and bridge construction.
- Griffin Grading and Concrete, Reeves Construction, and Gregory Bridge Company are identified as awardees across the projects; businesses should treat these as potential teaming or supply-chain leads, not as open bids.
- Project schedules extend into 2027 and 2029, providing an indication of the anticipated delivery horizon for related work in Georgia.
