The Peachtree Corners City Council voted recently to enter into a $458,596 construction contract with CMEC, LLC of Tucker, for sidewalk projects along Technology Parkway South, Frank Neely Road, Peachtree Corners Circle and The Corners Parkway.

Funding for the project comes from the 2017 GDOT Local Maintenance Improvement Grant program in the amount of $316,692. There is a required 30 percent match for this program, which brings the 2017 budgeted amount for the city’s LMIG projects to $411,700. The city’s FY18 Capital Improvement Projects budget also includes funds for additional sidewalk projects, which will provide adequate funding for this list of sidewalk projects.

The city had previously hired Keck & Wood, Inc. to provide the survey, engineering design, construction plans and bidding documents for this project. After a review of six bids, Keck & Wood, Inc. recommended award to CMEC, LLC, the lowest, most responsive bidder for the work.
