It’s no secret that the state of Georgia is experiencing explosive growth in terms of its population and business investment, and as a consequence, the Georgia Department of Transportation is in the midst of a comprehensive, multi-billion dollar program to expand the road network to handle the increasing traffic.
This has translated into a massive amount of new construction, be it in commercial hubs in the greater Atlanta area; the expansion and upgrade of the facilities at the Port of Savannah and the state’s other ports; and, as noted, the building of new highways, bridges and other infrastructure.
Associated Builders and Contractors recognized Georgia as the number one state for construction in 2023.
“For the first time, Georgia was named the top state for construction in Associated Builders and Contractors’ annual Merit Shop Scorecard,” stated an ABC press release. “The scorecard, released yearly since 2015, ranks all 50 states and the District of Columbia based on policies and programs that strengthen career pathways in construction, encourage workforce development and advocate for fair and open competition on taxpayer-funded construction projects.”
