City of Stonecrest updates 2022 initial street repaving schedule, now slated Sept. 6-12

STONECREST, GA – The City of Stonecrest’s first round of street repaving scheduled to start on Aug. 29 was postponed. The roadwork started on Tuesday, Sept. 6 following the Labor Day holiday.

Funding for the project is provided through Special Purpose Local Option Sales tax (SPLOST) funds. The project is a part of the City’s 2022 paving program. In total, 58.3 lane miles of roadway will be repaved throughout the city.

Stonecrest will invest nearly $12 million in its 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.

Stonecrest officials used the Paving Condition Index (PCI) score, an industry wide standard, to set 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. Roads with no visible disturbance were measured with special tools to help determine the final PCI score.

Traffic volume was also a consideration in determining the repaving schedule.

The first phase of repaving will begin the week of Sept. 6-12. All work is scheduled from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. The schedule is subject to change due to inclement weather.

Stonecrest roads scheduled to be repaved are:
