Public Input Meeting Scheduled For Proposed New Road

JOHNS CREEK, GA — The city of Johns Creek will host a public input meeting next month for a new road that's slated to be constructed using TSPLOST dollars.

The input meeting for the proposed project is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 12 at the city's Municipal Court at 11445 Johns Creek Parkway.

According to city documents, the new two-lane road would run between Bell Road and Johns Creek Parkway in Technology Park. Johns Creek notes the project could also include sidewalks, trails and landscaping.

City officials note heavy traffic on Medlock Bridge Road makes it difficult for motorists traveling from the Bells/Boles Road area to access Technology Park or go northbound McGinnis Ferry Road. This new road will improve options to access Technology Park and provide an alternative route for emergency vehicles to take when responding to calls in the area.

The improvements could cost about $2.5 million, and is in the list of Tier 1 projects Johns Creek has compiled to be funded with TSPLOST revenue. Tier 1 projects are the highest priority improvements in each city. You can view other Tier 1 projects on Johns Creek's list by going here.
