Douglas County will have almost 24 miles of fresh asphalt on its roads by summer’s end due to the paving program currently underway. The Douglas County Department of Transportation (DCDOT) paving crew is paving 11.078 miles of roadway, and ER Snell Contractors was recently awarded the bid to pave another 12.812 miles this summer.

The roads to be paved are as follows. The DCDOT is concentrating on smaller, less traveled roadways, and the Contractor is working on larger, higher traffic volume roadways.

An attempt is made to annually pave approximately the same mileage in each County Commission District. The majority of funding for the paving program comes from the State Motor Fuel Tax which comes back to local governments through the GDOT Local Maintenance Improvement Grant program.
