Abstract

In compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and amendments thereto, project CRBG-0006-00(469), Fulton County, has been surveyed with respect to archeological resources, especially those on or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The purpose of the survey was to locate, identify and evaluate the significance of any archaeological resources within the proposed project’s area of potential environmental effects.

The proposed project consists of replacing the structurally deficient bridge on CR 581/Bethsaida Road over Morning Creek Tributary, 3.4 miles east of Union City, Georgia. The project is 0.38 miles in length and would construct a new 60’ by 48’ concrete bridge over Morning Creek Tributary at the existing bridge site. The approaches would consist of two, 12’ lanes with 4’ bike lanes, 10’ urban shoulders that include 2.5’ curb and gutter and a 5’ sidewalk. The bridge typical section will consist of two, 12’ lanes in each direction with 4’ bike lanes and 6’ sidewalks. Required right-of-way varies from 15 feet to 35 feet with an additional 10 feet to 20 feet of easements along the length of the project.
