DUBLIN, Ga. — Roadwork stretching from State Route 29 from East Dublin to Rockledge starts on Monday and the Georgia Department of Transportation says drivers should expect delays.
According to a release from the Georgia Department of Transportation, the road will be resurfaced and it could take several weeks.
The project extends from Bank Street to Churchloop Road near the Treutlen County line.
People can expect delays daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. in the 13-mile project area until it is finished.
"An aggregate seal operation entails spraying a heated film of asphalt liquid on the road, followed by placing fine rocks or chips on top. The chips are then compacted to make them adhere to the roadway," the release said.
The project is expected to help improve the road and make it last five to seven years longer, according to GDOT.
"Finally, the excess loose chips are swept from the surface," the release said.
GDOT says drivers should watch for reduced speed limit signs.
