Residents and commuters along Craigie Avenue should prepare to adjust their routes as a section of the roadway will be shut down starting today. The closure, which affects the stretch between Livingstone Place and Haven Lane, is due to the Scott Boulevard Water Main Replacement Project Phase III, as reported by DeKalb County Government's official news release.
The work is slated to last until September 6, assuming the weather doesn't to further disrupt the project. Motorists traveling through the area can expect to experience delays and should plan accordingly. Traffic will be redirected around the construction zone, with flaggers and signage in place to guide vehicles and maintain a level of safety for all. The county advises seeking alternate routes if possible to avoid congestion.
Local access will be maintained throughout the duration of the closure, but through-traffic will need to follow the detour signs. The county has taken steps to minimize the inconvenience to residents and visitors alike; however, drivers should remain alert, adhere to the signs, and follow directions provided by flaggers.
For those looking for further details or having inquiries regarding the roadwork, the DeKalb Water Management (DWM) Project Information Line is available at 1-800-986-1108. Additionally, questions or concerns can be communicated via email to [email protected].
