GDOT setting new bridge beams on Ga. 20 tomorrow

Georgia DOT plans to begin setting the new pre-stressed concrete bridge beams for the new State Route 20 Bridge over the Chattahoochee River at the Gwinnett-Forsyth county line Wednesday. The plan is to set six beams overnight Wednesday and six beams overnight Thursday, if weather cooperates.

The 1.07 mile long project widens SR 20 from James Burgess Road in Forsyth to Burnett Trail in Gwinnett to a four-lane divided highway with sidewalks and includes new bridges over the Chattahoochee River.
