Chamblee Gap Road will be temporarily closed to through traffic from Bethelview Road to Johnson Road beginning January 4, 2016. The temporary closure is to allow for improvements to be made, including realigning and upgrading Chamblee Gap Road to an urban curb and gutter paved roadway with sidewalks and multi-use paths adjacent to the roadway.

The road improvements are being completed by Lennar, homebuilder for a residential development being constructed off of Chamblee Gap Road, northwest of the city of Cumming. The development is slated to include 572 single-family detached homes and 124 attached units. No county funds are involved in the road work.

Improvements to the roadway are expected to be completed in late 2016, at which time the road will reopen to through traffic.

Motorists’ patience during this temporary closure is appreciated.
