Island-Wide Road Resurfacing to Begin Thursday, November 12
Local road improvement and resurfacing work will begin Thursday, November 12, across key areas of Jekyll Island.
Motorists should expect daytime lane closures, temporary traffic shifts, and minor delays in active work zones—including ongoing paving along North Riverview between Potter Ave. and Stable Road and Beachview Dr. between the Days Inn & Suites and Captain Wylly Road.
Work hours will generally run from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., weather permitting. In addition, portions of the Morgan Center, Airport, and Mini Golf/Bike Rental parking lots will be rehabilitated. Expect limited access and short disruptions in these parking lots while the project is ongoing.
Traveler Advisory:
- Local residents and visitors will maintain access to driveways and businesses.
- Through-traffic is encouraged to seek alternate routes or exercise caution around construction personnel and flaggers.
- The paving contractor is scheduled to be completed before the first week of December, pending no weather delays.
These projects are funded in part through the Georgia Department of Transportation Local Maintenance and Improvement Grant (LMIG) program and local Jekyll Island Authority funding allocations.
