August Construction Update & Upcoming Milestones

Throughout this year you may have noticed some changes in downtown Conyers as work progresses on our Judicial and Administrative Complex – a new place of pride for Rockdale County.

As construction continues, here’s a look at what’s coming in August:

  • Administration Building: Plaza level slab prep is ongoing, with underground electrical work and steel erection in progress.
  • Courthouse Building: Construction advances on plaza-level footings, walls, and the elevator pit. MEP and under-slab electrical rough-ins are underway. Steel erection begins this month.
  • Area Disruptions: Starting this month, Pine Street will have single-lane, two-way traffic with barriers and caution lights, and Bank Street will be closed two ways from the Truist Bank parking entrance to Pine Street.

Building Momentum: July Highlights:

Administration Building:

  • Steel erection is underway on the Southwest Corner, marking strong vertical progress.
  • The plaza level slab is complete, with concrete pouring now beginning on upper levels.
  • Groundwork between the Administration Building and the Courthouse is advancing.
  • Storm Line A installation has been completed, enhancing the site’s infrastructure readiness.

Courthouse:

  • The basement slab has been poured and is currently being finished.
  • Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) installation is ongoing at the plaza level.
  • Excavation continues for the south side wall footings.
  • The elevator pit footing has been poured, and wall formwork is in progress.
  • Plaza level column footings have been poured along the existing Courthouse annex.

Why It Matters:

These construction milestones are laying the foundation—literally and figuratively—for a more modern, efficient, and interconnected civic complex.

This isn’t just a construction site — it’s a vision to Reimagine Rockdale coming to life, one brick at a time. The finished complex will bring many benefits to our community, including:

  • Modern public courtrooms & facilities
  • More greenspace
  • Enhanced safety
  • A pedestrian-friendly design
  • Additional downtown parking

As each milestone is reached, we’re not just building structures — we’re building a brighter future for our community. Stay tuned for more updates as we build a better Rockdale, together.
