T he Hart County Board of Commissioners has begun a new system of tracking work orders for such things as fixing potholes etc. This new system will allow us to instantly find your work order and give you the status of it. This new system will also be much more efficient allowing us to save tax dollars. You can also submit your work order online.

Work orders during this summer season will take longer to complete because we are using your tax dollars to fix and pave roads while the weather is warmer. Please be patient. This summer we are doing the following:

Tar and Gravel Paving of Dirt Roads (approximately 9 miles, $270,000)
This summer the following dirt/gravel roads will be surfaced with Tar and Gravel by the Hart County Roads department. These roads will not be widened or moved but a 6 inch stone base will be placed before paving with tar and gravel. The ditches and shoulders will be cleared prior to work beginning. This work will be done at a fraction of the cost of a new asphalt road and will use funds from sales taxes (SPLOST). Because of the cost savings, we will be able to do 10 times the number of miles for the same price as prior methods and we will be converting about 10% of our dirt roads to pavement this year alone.

ROADS: Parker, Rhodes, Blanton Shirley, Andrew Floyd (portion), Whitewood, Spears, Miller, Somerset, Eastern, Jones-Bishop, Page road sections 1 & 2, Harbor Point, St. James (portion), Raindrop, Bailey Place, Byrum Cemetery, Whiting, Evergreen, K-N-K, Price Chapel

Asphalt Resurfacing of Existing Paved Roads (Approximately 20 miles)
This summer the following paved roads will be resurfaced with new pavement by a private contractor. The Hart County Roads department will prepare the roads with patching and sealing. This work will use funds from sales taxes (SPLOST), and grants obtained from the GADOT.

ROADS: Old Beacon Light (narrow section), Panorama, Junction 77, Delta Way, Alderman, Walt Wilson, New Hope, Reed Creek School (portion), Boleman Hill (portion), Eagle Grove School road (2 miles), Old Elbert pt. 1 (from Royston Bypass, 1 mile), Reed Road, Deer Run

Sealing and Resurfacing Existing Paved Roads (Approximately 30 miles)
Again this summer we will be resurfacing existing tar and gravel roads and sealing cracked asphalt paved roads in compliance with our long range roads plan. The Hart County Roads department will be doing this work and it will be funded from sales taxes (SPLOST). Please see our long range roads plan for more information.
