The proposed project would improve State Route 11/US 129 from County Road 5419/Jenkins Road in the Town of Cleveland, White County through Lumpkin County to State Route 180 in Union County. The existing dirt shoulders are variable from 0.6 to 2.4 meters (2 to 8 feet). The proposed project would pave approximately 0.6 meters (2 feet) of the existing shoulders in each direction. Also, there would be minimal slope work in areas to facilitate the project. The total project length would be approximately 36.5 meters (22.8 miles). There is no existing right-of-way for portions of the project within U.S. Forest Service Land. All roadways and subsequent maintenance are by way of use permits. All activity on portions of the project outside of U.S. Forest Service Land would be done within existing right-of-way. For locations of U.S. Forest Service Land on the subject project, please see attachment.
