At a recent Dawson County Chamber of Commerce luncheon, local roads officials brought attendees up to speed on county and state projects to help ease traffic, improve road conditions and reduce roads fatalities.
Sue Anne Decker, district traffic engineer with the Georgia Department of Transportation Gainesville office, spoke about GDOT’s “Drive Alert Arrive Alive” campaign, which has recently been revamped as the number of fatalities on Georgia roads increased 32 percent over the past three years.
Decker said Dawson County is number one in GDOT’s 21-county District One for roads fatalities between the ages of 15 and 19.
