State transportation officials are selling land they don't need to bring in more money. The initial sale will include 11 parcels in the Atlanta area. Jill Goldberg of the state Department of Transportation says the parcels were chosen because they could be attractive to buyers.
The state Department of Transportation is investing more than 2 million dollars in storm preparation. The money is going toward buying and updating snow and ice removal equipment, computerized maps, and mobile devices for snow equipment operators.
