City of Stonecrest launches $12M street repaving projects targeted for 2022, work starts today, Aug. 29

Stonecrest, GA – The City of Stonecrest has announced the first round of streets that will be repaved as part of its 2022 paving program slated for Aug. 29-Sept. 9. No road work will take place Sept. 3-5, Labor Day weekend. All work is scheduled 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

Stonecrest roads scheduled to be repaved are: Maddox Road, Coffee Road, Marbut Trace / Charter Manor, Charter Way, Bedford Lane and Charter Lane.

Funding for the paving is provided through Special Option Local Sales Tax (SPLOST). Stonecrest will invest nearly $12 million in the street repair and resurfacing program through its 2022 funding. This investment will support asphalt street resurfacing, and a general repair of the streets throughout Stonecrest. In total, 58.3 lane miles of roadway will be repaved throughout the city.

Stonecrest officials used the Paving Condition Index (PCI) score, an industry-wide standard, to prioritize the order in which the streets will be repaved. This is a weighted score that factors in the surface and roughness of the roadway. These conditions may be visible to motorists in the form of potholes, cracking and worn asphalt, officials said. Roads with no visible disturbance were measured with special tools to help determine the final PCI score. Traffic volume also was a consideration in determining priority repairs.
