Mario Adkins wants a project sped up in Clayton County.
The project is a bridge and underpass construction at Conley Road, Old Dixie Road and Charles Grant Parkway.
Adkins said construction started years ago to widen Conley Road into four lanes and add sidewalks.
T he project also con- sisted of building a bridge and underpass so that Conley Road connects to Charles Grant Parkway while passing under Old Dixie Road.
“Construction on the project stopped about two years ago. Cars must travel through a construction zone and a confusing maze of turns, detours and construction barrels. Grass is growing through t he ‘ new’ side- walks. Clayton Co. SPLOST funds were used for the proj- ect. There is no information about this project online except that it is long past its completion date,” Adkins wrote.
We sent the issue to Clay- ton County and will let you know when it is finished.

Diane Dane has a problem with crumbling pavement.
“This has been reported S eptember 29, 2021, to Henry County, however it’s still not repaired. This is to the right of 6035 Montlake Ave., in the Lakehaven subdivision in McDonough. I consider it very dangerous and structurally unstable since the rebar is showing,” Dane wrote.
We sent the issue to the city and will let you know when it is resolved.
