Request for
Feedback
Georgia Department of
Transportation
For P.I. No. 0018245
The Georgia Department of
Transportation (GDOT) is re
questing review and feedback
on the proposed project. We
appreciate your participation in
this process.
This project proposes a
bridge replacement on CR 11/
Dove-Drake Road over Mill
Shoal Creek, in Madison Coun
ty approximately 10 miles north
of Comer.
The existing bridge over Mill
Shoal Creek was built in 1962.
The existing bridge consists of
3 spans and the design loading
is unknown. The bridge is load
restricted and is scour criti
cal. The roadway at the bridge
consists of two 10-foot lanes
(one in each direction) and
approximately 2-foot unpaved
shoulders. The existing bridge
consists of two 10-foot lanes
(one in each direction) and ap
proximately 2-foot shoulders.
The existing right-of-way is
approximately 80-feet wide,
and additional right-of-way is
anticipated. An off-site detour
is proposed during construction
which will utilize Reed Brawner
Road, Mill Shoal Church Road,
and Parham-Dudley Road and
have a net length increase in
travel of 1.8 miles.
GDOT has placed informa
tion about the proposed proj
ect at https://www.dot.ga.gov/

website is provided in place of
