Repaving Bass Road from Providence Boulevard to Zebulon Road will continue beginning Monday, June 1, at 7:00 p.m. Paving will continue nightly until 6:00 a.m. for about 6 nights, or until the project is complete. During this time, please drive cautiously through the area and obey all traffic signals and signs, and all directional guidance from crews.

“The quality of our roads has been one of the most talked about daily issues people in Macon-Bibb face the past few years, so we are making an historical investment in improving roads across the entire county,” says Mayor Lester Miller. “Since we began the Paving the Way program this past summer, people have noticed a marked improvement in their daily commutes.”

Repaving this major stretch of Bass Road is part of the Macon-Bibb County’s Paving the Way program, which began in the Summer of 2025. Since then, 885 segments of 352 streets totaling 119.8 miles have been repaved, with another 62.1 miles already identified and bid out for repaving. In previous years, only 7-8 miles per year were repaved per year.

“I’m proud of the collaborative work of our departments, partners, Commissioners, and public to identify the worst roads in the county, as well as the most well-travelled roads, so we can have the greatest positive impact on people’s daily lives,” says County Manager Dr. Keith Moffett.
