NeW! The inbound lane (towards downtown) of Lumpkin Street between Carlton Terrace and Earth Fare will be closed for approximately 14 days beginning the week of July 25. The staging area currently in Carlton Terrace will be relocated to the south end of the project and traffic detoured onto Carlton Terrace.
The work of this phase of Five Points Infrastructure work will include removal of old road base and installing new concrete base and asphalt surface course.
Every effort will be made by the contractor to minimize disruptions and maintain businesses and residents access to their property. A project representative should contact owners prior to the temporary closings of driveways.
The Contractor for the Project is Astra Grading and Pipe, LLC. The Project is monitored and managed by Athens-Clarke County Transportation and Public Works. Please feel free to contact the Project Coordinator, Jeff Squires, regarding any project management or construction issues.
