Thanks for updating! The request was turned over to the bridge team for repairs to be made.

it was patched, but the next big rain will remove the minor repair. it is still a very rough ride across that stretch of the bridge

It was a temporary repair it looks like. The trucks have already the holes have been uncovered again. The repair need to be made with cement, not asphalt. The repai needs to be done again.

Hi! I resubmitted the issue via Service Request 1129517165 so that they can come back out. Thanks for informing us!

The potholes on this bridge are getting bigger. Rebarb showing through cement. Asphalt will not permanently repair these holes. They need to be patched with cement.......

Good morning, Robin. I pulled up the request in our system and it is currently still in progress.

Holes are getting bigger. Needs repair ASAP.

Good morning, Robin. We have escalated this request to the Department of Public Works for resolution. We apologize for the delay.

Holes still need repair!

Hi Robin. I have reached back out to Public Works for an update on the status of this repair. We will let you know of any information we receive and apologize for the delay in this being resolved.

These pot holes have not been repaired yet. Any idea when they might get fixed?? It's on a bridge, I would assume that would be a priority.

Still not repaired. There are more potholes now on the bridge. Rebar is showing.

Good afternoon, service request #1129517165 is still open and pending repair. We will continue to address this issue with the Public Works Department until addressed. We are sorry this has yet to be handled.

You can see through it now. I know you guys mentioned on the other post that resolution is going to happen tomorrow, but you really need an engineer to assess the bridge. A patch can't fix this... The structural integrity is not there any longer. Huge trucks drive on this everyday. Immediate action should be taken and you might want to post your findings so we can all sleep a little better over here

Hi Bridget. We reached out to Public Works and were informed that they are assessing the location. We are reaching back out to them for a status update and apologize for the delay in resolution to this issue.

Any update?

Yes, Public Works is working on obtaining funding for this expensive emergency repair. Once funding is secured, work will begin.

Thanks! Is it safe to drive on and sit waiting for the light in the mean time?

As long as the road is not closed then it can be driven on.

We asked about the repairs at Councilman Brown's last townhall meeting 2 weeks ago. He said they should be starting work in the next 2 months. He also said they would check on the progress and get back with us.

Hello. I called ATL311 last week about this since my requests kept getting closed with no repair done. Turns out it is a public works matter and they can't get in contact with the contractor who the work has been contracted out to.. Here is the ticket #1158694062 for the escalated ATL311 SR that was made on my behalf last week by the lady I was speaking to. For some reason it was closed out too the other day..the bridge is still not repaired. Seems like this has been going on for years. Please fix the bridge.

We appreciate your diligence and the update on the bridge. We have reviewed Service Request 1158694062 and found the request was closed after the area was inspected on 11/8/2019. Signs have been placed back at the site as the Department of Public Works is awaiting funding to complete the project. Unfortunately, we cannot provide a time frame for the completion of this project at this time. Thanks for your patience with the repairs of the bridge!

How do we get Public Works funding so they can repair broken bridges?

I am aware of the status of the Service Request. How do we get Public Works funding so they can repair broken bridges?

Hello..3 weeks later..any update as to when the closed off lane on the bridge will be reopen?

Good afternoon, we just inquired about the status of this lane closure. We will be sure to relay any information provided.

Hello..5 weeks later..any update as to when the closed off lane on the bridge will be reopen?

We have been advised that the Public Works Department is in the process of securing funds for this repair. We will advise when a resolution date can be provided and apologize for the inconvenience.

Great! I look forward to the same response in about a months time when I follow up again.

One month later with no update...what is the status of the funding? Can you provide any date, any date at all, just make something up at this point please.

We have made contact with the bridge engineer for this repair, and he has advised they were still in the process of obtaining funds to complete this repair. We will be sure to relay any information we receive for this issue.

Is the funding going through legislation, and on what month's agenda is it on? Is there a contact for this project at the city?

Right, that was your answer months ago, my question is "what is the status of the funding?" Is it being voted on, is it under review, is it passing soon, what is the hold up?

We have been advised that there is no ETA on the completion time and funding is still in the process of being secured. That is all the information we have at this time. The engineer assigned to this project is Michael Ayo and he can be reached at 404-330-6467.

I have already spoke to Mr. Ayo many months ago, he does not have the answer as to what is holding up securing funding. This was his response from November 22, 2019:

"Our Commissioner is work on securing funding for this project and we should have an answer in the next few weeks."

Here is an actual update from today from Councilmember Antonio Brown's, District 3 office regarding funding:

"The Mayor’s office has instructed Public Works to officially begin the bid process for the project. The bid process, coupled with the legislative process, has construction projected to begin in June."

Thanks for letting us know!
