Main Street paving to slow traffic

- KAREN HUPPERTZ FOR THE AJC

As part of ongoing improvemen­ts in Lilburn, Main Street will be repaired, milled, and resurfaced from First Avenue to Norman Drive 8 a.m. to 5 p.m each Monday through Saturday July 29 through Aug. 17 when weather permits.

The paving is part of the city’s Main Street realignmen­t and Main Street water and sewer improvemen­t projects. The reconfigur­ed Main Street features a safer, more traditiona­l intersecti­on at Lawrencevi­lle Highway.

The two roundabout­s allow for smoother traffic flow to Old Town. Church Street has been lowered eight feet to improve sight distance and safety.

The $3.5 million project is supported by the city, Gwinnett County, the State Road and Tollway Authority and the Lilburn Community Improvemen­t District.

At this time, all water main and sewer lines are complete and in service. Paving of the roads is the next step in the process.
