  Press Release of the Week [2 of 2]: Cobb County Receives Federal Grant for Akers Mill Ramp
 
  Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) issued the following statement after the U.S. Department of Transportation announced Cobb County will be awarded a $5 million INFRA grant for the construction of a reversible ramp, which will provide direct access to the I-75 Managed Lanes system:

"During the last two years, my office has worked tirelessly with the Cumberland CID to secure federal funding for the Akers Mill Ramp project. This funding announcement is a testament to the persistent efforts of both of our offices to make this local road project a national priority. Much of the credit for securing this federal funding goes to Kim Menefee, Cumberland CID’s Executive Director, and her staff, for their tireless efforts. I also want to thank Secretary Elaine Chao (USDOT) and her staff for working with my office to ensure this project became a national priority.”

  In the News: Feds to finish funding of Akers Mill ramp  
  From the Marietta Daily Journal:

"Nearly one year after the opening of the state’s Northwest Corridor Express Lanes, Cobb leaders announced Tuesday the federal government would kick in the final $5 million to complete funding for a ramp connecting the lanes to Cumberland.

The approximately $44 million project will see construction of a ramp at Akers Mill Road onto the Georgia Department of Transportation’s $834 million managed lanes, which opened in September. With local, county and state partners previously funding or committing about $39 million toward the effort, the U.S. Department of Transportation will provide $5 million via an Infrastructure For Rebuilding America grant."
