Cobb DOT said Sunday afternoon that Bill Murdock Road—right at one of the entrances to Walton High School—is closed due to a fallen tree that’s brought down power lines.
That’s from last night’s severe thunderstorms that caused some other similar road closures in the county Sunday.
The Bill Murdock closure is between Pine Road and Old College Way (the area indicated between the two blue stars).
According to DOT, “road maintenance crews have cleared the tree and debris, but fire personnel are still on-site, awaiting the arrival of the power company. Currently, there is no estimated time for reopening the road.”
Hicks Road in South Cobb also has been closed on Sunday for similar reasons.
In a separate message early Sunday evening, the county said that “these roads are expected to be open for the morning rush hour.”
