A
RESOLUTION
Urging
the Georgia Department of Transportation to prioritize certain projects; 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 17, SR 20, SR 56, SR 140, SR 151, SR 411, the intersection at Belfast Siding
Road and I-95, and Windsor Spring Road are important state road facilities that
need to be upgraded in order to maximize economic development along corridors;
and
WHEREAS,
another compelling reason to prioritize the upgrade of SR 17, SR 20, SR 56, SR
140, SR 151, SR 411, the intersection at Belfast Siding Road and I-95, and
Windsor Spring Road is to protect the safety of the motorists who use such
facilities on a daily basis; and
WHEREAS,
the benefits of prioritizing the upgrade of these strategic regional projects
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 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 17, SR 20, SR 56, SR 140, SR 151, SR 411, the intersection at Belfast Siding Road and I-95, and Windsor Spring Road as part of its development of a state-wide transportation network.
urge the Georgia Department of Transportation to prioritize the necessary upgrades to SR 17, SR 20, SR 56, SR 140, SR 151, SR 411, the intersection at Belfast Siding Road and I-95, and Windsor Spring Road 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.
