The TIP set aside multiple lump-sum banks for future small projects across District 1, including lighting, bridge maintenance, road maintenance, operations, traffic control devices, right-of-way protective buy, safety, and railroad crossings. The document also listed Hall County-area lump-sum projects such as pedestrian upgrades at 13 locations, an EV charging site, and the Flowery Branch multi-use trail. These are not single awarded contracts, but they show where GDOT and the MPO expected to spend next on small works and devices.

Public Updates

The document is a public notice, but it confirms a planned highway safety project with a long build window.

Contract Award

The district entered a five-year student transportation contract with Menomonie Transportation, Inc. for bus service from August 15, 2026 through August 14, 2031. Exhibit 1 sets the 2026-27 rates, including $152.01 per day plus $2.76 per mile for regular routes and separate special education, early childhood, and field trip pricing. The deal is already selected, but the annual rate negotiations and automatic extension deadlines create follow-on value for the incumbent and any future rebid.

Grant Funding

The board discussed a transportation grant led by Bruce Cowan. The item is still in old business, so it reads as an ongoing funding effort rather than a closed award. Any vendor or service provider should watch for the scope, routes, or mobility needs that get attached to the grant work. This was a current planning signal at the board's August 14, 2026 meeting.
