KIA Interchange, Troup County, GA

Florence & Hutcheson, as a sub-consultant to Volkert & Associates, was contracted to provide Construction Engineering and Inspection services for the GDOT Thomaston 3rd District West. F&H provided project management, roadway and bridge construction inspection for this project. One of the largest construction projects included the new interchange on I-85 in Troup County for the KIA automobile plant with a construction cost of $86 million dollars. The project consists of constructing a diamond interchange with relocated Gabbettville Road. Gabbettville Road will be relocated and upgraded to a 4 lane divided roadway and cross I-85. Relocated Gabbettville Road (proposed KIA Blvd.) will start at the intersection of Sandtown Road and existing Gabbettville Road and widen to a 4 lane facility with a 32’ raised median. This section will be carried over I-85 with a 4-lane bridge with a closed 32’ wide median on the bridge and will end at CR 94/Warner Road.
