It’s been one big step after another over the last three-plus years as work to develop a new Lanier Technical College campus in North Hall has progressed.
First, there was the acquiring of state funding for the $131 million campus and securing 95 acres off Howard Road at Ga. 365. Then came construction of six buildings with a combined 335,000 square feet, compared to the 180,000 square feet on 43 acres at the old campus. There were additional private fundraising campaigns, ribbon-cutting ceremonies and visits from government and educational leaders.
But now comes the challenge of actually moving stuff.
The physical relocation of classroom materials, school maintenance supplies and heavy equipment, a process Lanier Tech officials described as moving swiftly since beginning on Nov. 26, should be complete soon.
