Central Georgia Technical College Begins Major Renovation of Macon Campus

MACON, Ga. – Central Georgia Technical College has begun a major renovation project at its Macon Campus that will improve multiple buildings and temporarily affect parking, building access and pedestrian routes.

Construction activities began in August following months of planning and coordination, according to the college. The project includes improvements to Buildings C, D, E, F and G, along with portions of Building B.

The college said the renovations are intended to improve campus facilities and the learning environment for students, employees and visitors.

Phase 1 of construction began during the first week of August and is expected to take approximately 16 weeks to complete.

Additional phases will follow. Most are also expected to last about 16 weeks, while Phase 2 is projected to take approximately 20 weeks.

Building Access, Parking and Class Locations May Change

Because of the size and duration of the project, students and employees should expect temporary changes to normal campus operations throughout construction.

Those changes could include adjustments to building access, parking areas, entrances and exits, and pedestrian routes around the Macon Campus.

CGTC’s Academic Affairs division is working with campus departments to relocate and manage academic spaces as different portions of the campus undergo renovation.

Construction could also result in temporary increases in noise, dust and other disruptions associated with the work.

College officials are asking students, employees and visitors to follow posted construction signs and designated pedestrian routes, use only authorized entrances and exits, and avoid restricted construction areas.

People traveling to the campus are also encouraged to allow additional time for parking and walking because routes could change as the project progresses.

CGTC said it will continue monitoring the impact of construction and provide updates as conditions and access points change.

The college described the project as a significant investment in the future of its Macon Campus and said it intends to maintain normal academic operations as much as possible while the renovations are underway.
