Roswell Road Lane Closed For Construction
The turn lane's closure was scheduled to begin Monday and continue for the next two months.

MARIETTA, GA — A turn lane from Roswell Road onto Cobb Parkway will be closed for the next two months for construction.
Crews with the Georgia Department of Transportation will be doing drainage work and lane and sidewalk reconstruction associated with the Northwest Corridor Express Lane project. To do so, they'll be closing the right-turn lane on Roswell Road westbound, and the sidewalk there, from Hagood Circle to Cobb Parkway (U.S. 41).
Even though the lane will be closed, drivers still will be able to turn right onto Cobb Parkway, according to the DOT. The closure was scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. Monday and will be continuous for the next two months.
