Following up something we posted back in March, about the $1.2 million Casteel Road bridge replacement project over Piney Grove Creek:
Cobb DOT said today that traffic on Casteel Road where it meets Bill Murdock Road and Oak Lane at the creek and bridge will be closed starting Thursday, May 24, and will reopen on July 31.
The dates are timed for today’s end to the 2017-18 school year and the start of the 2018-19 school year on Aug. 1.
The 55-year-old bridge over Piney Grove Creek, what used to be called Sewell Creek, is being completely replaced, and the new construction will be wider, with shoulders, sidewalks and barriers on either side.
The three-way intersection also will be reconfigured, but for now, motorists will be able to travel between Oak and Bill Murdock, as indicated by the Cobb DOT map below showing suggested detours. More information is at cobbcommute.org.
