Urging the Georgia Department of Transportation to prioritize a certain project; and for other purposes.

WHEREAS, in these uncertain economic times all of the resources devoted to improving transportation in this state need to be utilized efficiently; and

WHEREAS, SR 20 is an important state highway that needs to be upgraded in order to maximize economic development along its corridor; and

WHEREAS, another compelling reason to prioritize the upgrade of SR 20 is to protect the safety of the motorists who use it on a daily basis; and

WHEREAS, the benefits of prioritizing the upgrade of this strategic regional project would not only spread to the people of the area, but to the entire state, as it would intertwine seamlessly with the Georgia Department of Transportation's goal of a developing a state-wide transportation network.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE SENATE that the members of this body
urge the Georgia Department of Transportation to prioritize the necessary upgrades to SR 20 as part of its development of a state-wide transportation network.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Secretary of the Senate is authorized and directed to transmit an appropriate copy of this resolution to the commissioner of transportation, the planning director of transportation, and the State Board of Transportation.
