New Sidewalks Completed In Gwinnett

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA — Several new sidewalk projects in Gwinnett County have been opened to the public.

While contractors are still wrapping up some final details, the sidewalks, built by the Gwinnett County Department of Transportation and funded by special-purpose, local option sales tax money, have been made accessible to pedestrians.

Sections of new, five-foot-wide sidewalk were installed on Burns Road, Dickens Road and State Route 378/Beaver Ruin Road.

A section of sidewalk also was installed on Collins Hill Road from Georgia Gwinnett College to the tennis facility. Another project filled in gaps in the sidewalk along Peachtree Industrial Boulevard from Hansboro Way to Tench Road and from Tench Road to North Price Road.

All of the sidewalk projects include curb, gutter and other drainage improvements.
