WHITE, Ga. – Motorists can expect new signage along I-75 in the coming months. 

Georgia Department of Transportation awarded North Cherokee Electrical a $3.94 million contract to replace the signage on the interstate from Glade Road to the Tennessee state line. The project is slated to be finished next summer.

It was one of several contracts awarded last month by GDOT for projects throughout District Six.
