Construction work to upgrade sewer lines and manhole structures on Bend Creek Drive will result in road closures starting December 1 through December 31. The closure affects Bend Creek Road at the intersections of Bend Creek Way and Dunwoody Club Drive.

Detour signs will be installed to guide drivers around the closed sections. These dates may change depending on weather conditions. Signs indicating road closures and detours will be placed to inform motorists about construction activities and local traffic restrictions.

The normal hours for construction are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, except for major holidays. Residents should expect more noise and increased traffic during these times.

For additional information, people can call the DWM Project Information Line at 1-800-986-1108 or email projectinfo@dekalbcountyga.gov with questions.
