GDOT Board Member Boswell Acknowledges Benefit To His Clients Of Daniells Bridge Road Flyover In Oconee County

GDOT Board Member Jamie Boswell said the Board of Commissioners will have a "tough choice" on April 7 when they debate the road projects.

Jamie Boswell, commercial real estate broker and area representative to the Georgia Transportation Board, readily admits that his clients will benefit from the proposed Daniells Bridge Road extension and flyover of SR Loop 10.

“I would think it is accurate to say that it would make those properties more attractive for development,” he said. “I would think anybody would agree with that.”

The extension of Daniells Bridge Road with the flyover to the stub of the Oconee Connector at Home Depot also “will benefit 95 percent of the people in Oconee County,” he added.

Boswell said the Oconee County commissioners will have a “tough choice” to make on April 7, when they are scheduled to decide whether to go forward with the Daniells Bridge Road extension and flyover as well as the widening of Daniells Bridge Road itself.

“The problem they have got, is they know all of these people,” he said.
