Phase 1 of the Blue Mile streetscape –
sidewalks, street lamps, bus shelters, drainage improvements, resurfacing of
about a half-mile of South Main Street – is now “substantially complete” and
cost less than originally budgeted, Statesboro Public Works and Engineering
Director John Washington reported last week.
First phase of Blue Mile streetscape ‘substantially’ done, under budget
Power poles yet to be removed; then 2 more phases
