East Cobb traffic alert: Post Oak Tritt-Hembree roundabout work prompts rerouting all day Thursday

Post Oak Tritt-Hembree roundabout

Following up last week’s story about the delayed finish to the Post Oak Tritt-Hembree roundabout project: You’d best avoid that intersection on Thursday.

That’s because traffic is being rerouted for most of the day so contractors can lay down asphalt in the intersection.

Around noon today, Cobb commissioners JoAnn Birrell and Bob Ott issued a map below that isn’t terribly legible, but they also say in an accompanying note that the work will take place Thursday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., and that police officers will be redirecting traffic.

As we posted last week, weather and utility delays pushed back completion from this month to next March. Here’s more from the note that went out today:

“This project remains a priority for Cobb DOT, who will continue to make every effort to ensure that the project is safe throughout the remainder. Thank you for your patience!”
