According to a report in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, 4.2 miles of Georgia 3, which runs through parts of Clayton and Fulton counties, is the state’s first federally funded road improvement project to get underway. Governor Sonny Perdue and newly appointed Department of Transportation Chair Vance Smith will be on hand Tuesday as the project breaks ground. Also expected to attend the celebration in Hapeville is U-S Deputy Secretary of Transportation John Porcari. The project was awarded to C.W. Matthews Contracting Company for $941,000.
