Thanks to the state of Alabama’s gas tax, Geneva County has the opportunity to resurface portions of county roads yet again.
The county repaves some roads annually, but County Engineer Justin Barfield says it needs to be done more often.
This year, the county is resurfacing portions of County Roads 48, 49 and 99, for a total of 7.7 miles of road and costing $1.3 million dollars.“If it wasn’t for that, we would probably be doing about half the mileage that we usually would do,” said Barfield. “It’s been a great program for us and lets us pave more miles a year than what we we’re used to.”
“You have potholes, you have a narrow road where the edges are broken off, so we’re retaining the original pavement to get rid of the potholes,” said Barfield. “This is just much needed, not only for smoother travel, but for safer travel and so forth for the citizens of Geneva County and coming in from out of the county.”
