Jay Roberts, GDOT’s planning director for the last four years, recently became a partner at the firm GeorgiaLink. At GDOT, he’s been involved in some of Georgia’s most important transportation decisions in recent years.

That includes the development of a 10-year, $10 billion road construction program unveiled in 2016. The program includes such projects as the reconstruction of the I-285/Ga. 400 interchange and toll lanes on the top half of the Perimeter. It also includes 40 miles of proposed truck lanes on I-75 between Macon and McDonough, which have drawn scrutiny from state auditors and others.
