AtkinsRéalis 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. In Georgia DOT's Region 3, the state's Coastal Plain region, AtkinsRéalis has 23 active projects that are expected to progress to final design under this new contract.

The Region 3 GES contract covers 65 counties, 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.

AtkinsRéalis has built a strong reputation of providing general engineering services to state DOTs and transportation authorities in Colorado, Florida, Georgia, New Jersey, North Carolina and Texas.
