East Hall bridge replacement approved
0111bridge3
The Joe Chandler Road bridge over the North Oconee River is going to be replaced this summer while school is out.

The Hall County Board of Commissioners signed off Thursday on plans to replace a deteriorating East Hall bridge along a key traffic artery sometime this summer.

Commissioners approved spending special purpose local option sales tax revenue on the nearly $1.2 million replacement of the Joe Chandler Road bridge between Old Cornelia Highway and East Hall Road.

“We are replacing this bridge due to the lower tonnage ratings,” County Engineer Kevin McInturff said earlier this week.
