Brookhaven completes Phase 1 of 2018 paving list

Seventeen roads totaling 2.21 miles are now Brookhaven’s smoothest

Brookhaven, GA, April 6, 2018 – The City of Brookhaven has made substantial progress toward an aggressive 2018 paving schedule with the completion of all roads in Phase 1 on March 29.  Seventeen roads totaling 2.21 miles have been resurfaced or fully reconstructed.

In November, the Brookhaven City Council authorized a measure to jump-start the 2018 paving and leveraging the pricing schedule provided in its 2017 paving contract.  In 2017, Brookhaven paved 12.2 miles of road.

(Completed paving projects on Ashford Ridge and Ashford Trail, two of the 17 projects that were finished on or before March 29.)

“We are rolling up our sleeves and working towards having the best roads in the metro area, if not the state,” said Brookhaven Mayor John Ernst.

The following streets were paved between February and March 2018:

Brookhaven is accepting bids for Phase 2 of the 2018 paving season until April 13, which will encompass up to 5 more miles of roads.  Once a contractor is selected from these competitive bids, the Brookhaven Public Works Department will issue a Notice to Proceed and paving of these Phase 2 roads will begin in early Summer. 

To view the scope of the next round of paving, go to www.BrookhavenGA.gov, and select “Bids and RFPs” under the City Hall menu tab.
