Chevis Road Improvements Public Information Open House

This project will improve Chevis Road between U.S. 17/Ogeechee Road and Wild Heron Road. The purpose of the project is to improve safety and connectivity for all road users to existing schools, commercial areas, bus stops and neighborhoods. This project will be partially funded with your local SPLOST dollars as well as with federal tax dollars. During the concept phase we will consider what safety, operational and pedestrian improvements will best fit the corridor. The project will also consider bicycles, drainage, lighting and water quality improvements.

An early Stakeholder meeting was held in April 2023 attended by area organization representatives. We thank those who attended and provided valuable input. The written comments from this meeting are included in the Attachments section. This information along with the disscussions at the meeting are helpful for the ongoing planning and design.

A Public Information Open House will be held at the Georgia Coastal Botanical Garden on May 16, 2024 from 4 PM to 7 PM so that you will have an opportunity to provide input and look at what improvements we are considering. The initial studies have been taking place and Conceptual Engineering is underway. Concept layouts will be available at the Public Information Open House and are now available for viewing on this web site. The overall schedule includes design of the selected improvements in 2024-2025, right of way acquisition in 2026 and construction beginning in 2027.
