The DeKalb County Department of Watershed Management began repairing water lines at the intersection of Clifton Road and Haygood Drive this week. This work will occur Monday–Friday (excluding major holidays), 9 a.m.–5 p.m., and is scheduled to last one month. Buildings will remain open and accessible throughout construction. However, bike lanes and sidewalks near the intersection will be impacted, so bicycle riders and pedestrians will need to find alternate routes. Police officers and traffic flaggers will assist motorists in moving safely around the closures. Campus Services officials ask that those who use Clifton Road and Haygood Drive plan for traffic delays and avoid the area if possible. |
