Project Description

36+ miles of road set to be repaved

July 30, 2025

Published by Emily Hopkins

Macon-Bibb County has posted four Request for Proposals (RFP) for major road improvements as part of its Paving the Way program. Included in the four packages are 36.18 miles of road, totaling $11,841,367.77 coming from the 2018 SPLOST and state Local Maintenance & Improvement Grants (LMIG). To see the RFPs, click here .

“We plan on moving forward even faster with our Paving the Way program, and I expect to see major improvements on these roads beginning in October,” says Mayor Lester Miller. “The condition of our roads is one of our community’s top priorities, and we are putting more money toward it than ever before.”

“The roads selected were identified in our last scan as being the worst in the county, and with this round of repaving, we will have touched all roads rated 3 or higher,” says County Manager Dr. Keith Moffett. He’s referring to a county-wide study of all 1,100 miles of road that ranked them 1-5, with 5 being the worst.

Another scan was conducted earlier this year, and those results are being used to develop five more RFPs of priority roads based on things like condition, traffic volume, and more. In March 2025, the voters of Macon-Bibb County approved the renewal of the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST), helping start the next rounds of the program. Between the SPLOST, General Fund, and state LMIG funds, up to $50 million is being made available.

Another step in preparing for the historic funding, Mayor Miller and his administration are encouraging contractors and subcontractors to sign up and do business with the County. Those interested in these projects should reach out to the Officer of Small Business Affairs (OSBA). You can learn more about the OSBA by clicking here .

In the first round of Paving the Way, nearly $15 million was allocated from the general fund, SPLOST, and LMIG. The amount allocated in the first round was already nearly five times more than used in previous years. Between 2020 and now, the County repaved 45.539 miles of road.
