I-3 or I-14 Which will be built first? (Columbus, Savannah: moving, transportation)

[nortonguy]

What interstate do you think will start cosnstruction first?

I-3 Savannah-Augusta was Knoxnville now Greenville.

I-14 Ccolumbus-Macon-Augusta

I-3 Will allow goods to be shipped between Ft. Gordon in Augusta to Ft. Stewart in Savannah. I-14 will connect 3 of georgia's biggest cities.

Well can't say. Of course I'd like to see I-14 get built first since I"m from Columbus. But they've been talking about that for years I'll believe it when I see it.

I-14 sure. Georgia needs an east-west interstate.

I-14 may be built by 2089

That was when I-3 was going through Knoxville. But now it has been changed to Greenville.

It would still be a major waste of taxpayers money, pork project.

I agree....Columbus has blown too many opportunities.
They even lost the Southern Little League site to Warner Robinsby going cheap again.
Congrats to Warner Robins!!

The Southeast Region Headquarters serves as the administrative center for Little League Baseball and Softball activities in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. The annual Southeast Region Championship game (formerly the Southern Region Championship game) has been televised nationally on ESPN or ESPN2 every year since 1997.

GDOT board supports infrastructure stimulus package

The transportation board, which oversees the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT), said GDOT leaders examined projects that could be considered ready to start within 180 days, said to be a criteria for consideration.

I do not think that any of these are “shovel-ready” projects
They are more "Urban Sprawl" than "Green"

What may be funded would be the projects like:
Last leg of Truman Parkway project and the Abercorn Extension improvement and the bridge to Skidaway Island
All delayed and all “shovel-ready”
