Abstract

In compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and amendments thereto, GDOT Project MLP-19(39), Bibb County, has been surveyed with respect to archaeological resources, especially those in 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 project corridor.

The proposed project consists of the widening and reconstruction of US 41/SR 19/Vineville Avenue in Macon. The project begins at the intersection with SR 247/Pio Nono Avenue and continues northwesterly to Forest Hill Road; total project length is 2.0 miles. Existing right-of-way varies from 40 to 60 feet; total required right-of-way would be approximately 84 feet. An archaeological survey consistent with the proposed project corridor was conducted for the entire length of the project.
