DOT‑funded Douglas Ferry improvements 58% complete; county asked to approve resolution
Summary
Engineering staff told the board that the Douglas Ferry Road improvements are about 58% complete with drainage mostly finished, that DOT provided additional funds requiring a resolution to accompany a supplemental agreement (G3148), and that paving and base repairs are underway with a current final completion target in April.
Engineering staff provided a project update on Douglas Ferry Road and requested the board provide a resolution to accompany a supplemental agreement with the Department of Transportation.
The county engineer said DOT had provided additional funds and asked the board to acknowledge acceptance via a resolution tied to agreement G3148. Staff reported the project is about 58% complete, with most drainage work finished; remaining work focuses on rebuilding pavement where the base was insufficient and completing asphalt layers. The engineer said that issue explains why residents observed multiple paving passes in the same area — crews are rebuilding the base and then completing final paving, and DOT funds will help remediate the deficient base.
Staff gave an expected final completion date of April 24 and said the county will perform a walkthrough before final acceptance. The engineer also reported progress on design work for Clayton Road (90% design plans) and said Hunter Park work remains underway.
