Road closures on Columbia Woods Drive and Toney Drive in DeKalb County will remain in effect through December 10 as construction crews continue to replace sewer lines and manhole structures. Detour signs will be posted to guide drivers around the closed areas. The closure dates may change depending on weather conditions.
During the road closure, detour signage will be used to inform motorists about ongoing construction work and local traffic restrictions. Construction is scheduled from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding major holidays. Residents can expect more noise and increased traffic during these hours.
For more information about the project, individuals can contact the DWM Project Information Line at 1-800-986-1108 or email projectinfo@dekalbcountyga.gov with questions.
