A $276-million project to double the size and capacity of the Savannah Convention Center in Georgia is facing construction delays, the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission announced Feb. 20. With material completion originally scheduled for last year, its planned opening was pushed back to May of this year and now work is expected to slip even further.
“A variety of construction challenges” created the delay, according to the state commission. Officials said in a statement that they are working with Clark Construction Group, the project’s general contractor and construction manager, to determine a new timeline.
