With funding from area governments in the bag, all eyes are now on getting a key east-west connector between Gainesville and Oakwood designed and built. Gainesville City Council voted last week to commit $200,000 to the Tumbling Creek Road bridge project, following an earlier vote by the Hall County Board of Commissioners to contribute $400,000 and Oakwood City Council’s decision to provide $50,000. The governments are getting another $2 million from a state transportation grant approved in June.
