More lanes will close as utility work continues on Talbotton/Warm Springs Road

Drivers can expect more lane closures on Warm Springs/Talbotton Road this week as road widening work continues, the Georgia Department of Transportation reports.

Utility work and other construction work will cause some disruption of traffic from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday this week

Contractors will be installing a lane closure to continue the installation of a water line along the eastbound shoulder between 12^th Avenue and Piermont Avenue and a sewer line under the westbound lane of Warm Springs Road between Crestview Drive and Woodruff Road.

Motorists should be alert to trucks entering and exiting the roadway between 28^th Street and Slade Drive as construction of a concrete wall continues.

The project will reconstruct Talbotton/Warm Springs Road from two-lanes to four-lanes with a raised median, sidewalks, and curb and gutter. The project begins at the intersection of Talbotton Road and 7^th Avenue, follows the existing alignment and terminates just beyond the intersection of Warm Springs Road and Woodruff Road/Hilton Avenue.
