Catoosa County is getting more than $1 million in federal dollars to rehab three roads that are in need of resurfacing.

Funding for the work will be provided through a Transportation Improvement Program grant from the Georgia Department of Transportation.

The roadways slated for resurfacing are Red Belt Road, Poplar Springs Road and Hoover Road.

Jeremy Bryson, projects inspector for Catoosa County Public Works, said the roads are in poor shape due to cracks and potholes.

Poplar Springs Road in particular has been an area of concern, as it runs in front of Heritage Middle School and is currently being used as a detour for drivers displaced by GDOT’s bridge replacement project on Three Notch Road, which is expected to wrap up next summer.
