Georgia Department of Transportation

I, I think at the time he wasn't real sure if I'd be interested in it, and I was like, "Hmm, that sounds interesting." So I went for the interview and didn't get it, but, you know, that's how I initially con- made contact with the trucking industry.

Um, my dad, he started out, he, he worked in several areas of the depart- the Georgia Department of Transportation.

Um, he ended up in, he was as the chief of permits and enforcement, and he was over all of the, the enforcement guys, you know, the ones that pull you over and do checks, do, do your, you know, inspections.

[laughs] He was over all those guys.

on Monday.

Look, I love the Georgia Department of Transportation.

We have close ties here at WSB Radio with GDOT, Natalie Dale.

They all do really tough work over the Georgia Department of Transportation.

But there has got to be a better way than shutting down an interstate for an entire weekend.

So, uh, I know there's a Atlas 15 update coming.

We're trying to build... get, get rid of some of those sort of stationarity assumptions and so forth, and we're, we're working on a project here in, with the Georgia Department of Transportation on flooding and culverts and on roadways and so forth and thinking about some of these same issues in another project.

So it really triggered me on sort of we have a similar but slightly different problem here in the South with, uh, many places still using septic systems for waste and so forth.

And when there's extreme rainfall, particularly in some of those similar communities that you talked about, uh, the water backs up in the backyards and so forth, and that waste comes up from those septic systems.

Yes, sir.

You work with GDOT.

Yes, sir, I do.

What do you guys call it?

Drivers in southeast Georgia's Chatham County can expect lane closures on the Spur Bridge starting tomorrow.

The Georgia Department of Transportation says drivers should expect single lane closures on the US seventeen State Route four oh four Spur Bridge on weekdays from seven in the morning until four in the afternoon.

These closures will allow crews to prepare for cable replacement work scheduled to begin later this year as part of the Spur Bridge major maintenance project.

Drivers are encouraged to use caution when traveling through the area and allow extra travel time.
