C. BACKGROUND

The City of Newnan seeks to expand the LINC trail system to Newnan High School and the Newnan

Utilities Carl Miller Park. The LINC Phase 13 project is being built within public right-of-way and

on city easement within the Board of Education and Newnan Utilities properties. The Phase 13

project is a approximately 6,054 linear feet (1.15 miles) and includes a 10’ to 12’ wide concrete

trail, landscape, stormwater improvements, road width and parking reconfigurations, along with

bridge structures and retaining walls. Additional work associated with the project includes minor

demolition and clearing, erosion control, grading, trail amenities, and signage.

Portions of this project are located adjacent to Newnan High School and within areas of heightened

public sensitivity. The City anticipates issuing a Notice to Proceed around May 11, 2026, to

allow for early mobilization activities, including staging, material deliveries, and preparatory

work in areas not directly impacting school operations. Construction activities adjacent to

Newnan High School are anticipated to commence immediately following the conclusion of

the school year, with a target construction start date of May 25, 2026. Work along Cougar Way

and other areas adjacent to Newnan High School is considered time-critical and must be

substantially complete prior to the start of the 2026–2027 school year. The City is prepared to work

collaboratively with the selected contractor to facilitate this schedule, including coordination of

work hours, traffic control measures, and temporary access restrictions as necessary. Contractors

are advised that subsequent paving and related work by others is anticipated to follow closely behind

portions of this project. As such, proactive coordination, early mobilization, and aggressive

scheduling for this area will be required to meet overall project objectives.

D. SCOPE OF SERVICES
