Lane Closure Due To Roadwork in Forsyth
Georgia Department of Transportation crews will be working on state routes 369 and 141 near Cumming.
The Georgia Department of Transportation is set to perform routine maintenance activities this week in Forsyth, Dawson, Hall and Gwinnett counties, if weather permits. Most activities will only require shoulder or median lane closures, according to a press release.
Crews are expected to work through Friday, Jan. 20, from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., if weather permits. Lane closures are required for patching asphalt, and a flagman or pilot vehicle will direct traffic through the work zone.
It's a tentative schedule; if emergency response is needed at a crash scene or if emergency repairs are necessary the schedule will change.
