Engineering report: MacBayou and 393 North work advancing; commission accepts quarterly report and approves culvert lining contract
Summary
Engineering reported progress on MacBayou Road and 393 North drainage/pedestrian projects; commissioners accepted the quarterly engineering update, approved entry of Amanda Lane right‑of‑way mapping into records, and authorized a trenchless geopolymer culvert rehabilitation contract.
Walton County’s engineering director updated the commission on third‑quarter activity and ongoing construction projects, and the board approved several staff recommendations.
Engineering reported that the MacBayou drainage and pedestrian improvements — including full milling and resurfacing — were largely complete for the initial milling operation, with paving expected to finish by the end of the week and substantial completion targeted for early to mid‑December. Work on 393 North (drainage and pedestrian improvements) was underway with construction of the northbound lane and curb; the southbound lane will follow once the contractor flips traffic to the newly completed side.
The commission accepted the engineering department’s quarter‑three report (July–September). Commissioners also accepted staff requests to: (1) enter a recordable right‑of‑way map and legal description for Amanda Lane into county maintenance records; and (2) authorize a trenchless geopolymer lining repair for a failing culvert under County Route 30A near Stallworth Lake — a Vortex Services LLC contract under the HGAC cooperative pricing agreement for $174,644.
Engineering staff cautioned that lane closures and flagging had caused delays in some neighborhoods while much of the paving work is completed; the department said the work should substantially finish within the stated timelines.
