management company with offices around the world, has been
awarded a contract to provide general engineering services (GES)
for the Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT).
AtkinsRéalis has been supporting Georgia DOT with on-call
professional services since 2000 and currently holds ten such
contracts statewide.
"Our successful track record supported by our full range of
architectural, design and engineering services is why our
long-standing clients continue to entrust us with delivering
transportation systems focused on innovation, safety,
sustainability and mobility," said Ian L.

encompassing nearly 60 percent of the state. Spanning such a large
area, the region presents a wide range of land use conditions, a
diverse set of local community and metropolitan planning
organizations, variable geologic conditions, coastal hydraulics,
and dynamic environmental concerns. Projects in the region include
capacity, operational, and safety improvements that support the
movement of people, goods, and services across Georgia.

potential pitfalls and accelerate project deliverables to maximize
investments in infrastructure no matter the environment," said
