The Georgia Department of Transportation plans to clean and repaint the steel superstructure of five North Georgia bridges, possibly starting in late fall. The DOT has awarded a contract to S&D Industrial Painting of Florida for $608,500 on the projects, which include Ga. 51 and Ga. 53 bridges over Norfolk-Southern Railroad lines in Hall County. Also slated for the work are the U.S. 78/Ga. 10 bridge over the Yellow River and the Ga. 20 bridge over Norfolk-Southern Railroad in Gwinnett County, and the Ga. 17 Alternate bridge over Norfolk-Southern in Stephens County.
