The project seeks to repair and resurface approximately 7,490 linear feet of badly deteriorated campground access roads, dump station and bath house access lots, one 20,000 square foot beach access parking lot, and 31 campsite drives within Gatewood Park in Bartow County (see attached location map). In addition, Jim Knight Road and a portion of Bartow Beach Road leading into the Park from Georgia Highway 20 Spur would be resurfaced for a distance of 1.8 miles. The Gatewood Park campground and beach roadways consist of a fifteen (15) ft. travel lane with a rural cross-section using open ditches for drainage. The local county access roads consist of two 10-foot travel lanes with a rural cross section. The paved surfaces will be full depth patched and drainage re-established where needed in damaged areas. Most areas will be leveled full width with Flexible Pavement at a rate of 90 pounds/square yard providing approximately a half-inch of depth throughout the road surface. This layer will then be covered full width with asphaltic concrete 9.5 mm Superpave, Type II, GP 2 only, at a rate of 135 pounds/square yard for a depth of approximately 1.5 inches throughout the project.
