Used to laying down fresh asphalt and otherwise improving state roads, the Georgia Department of Transportation is making an upgrade of its own. Gainesville-based District One has moved to a shiny new, three-story office building off Jesse Jewell Parkway from a 55-year-old building off Athens and Gillsville highways in East Hall.
