Emergency Road Closure Roy Road at Bumpy Hollow Rd. (Wednesday, February 03, 2010)

A portion of Roy Road will be closed effective immediately until further notice. A hand laid stone abutment failed, resulting in apparent settling of the bridge deck and failure of the road shoulder and pavement. This location is just north of Holt Bridge Road and Bumpy Hollow Road. Detour signage has been placed, as well as stone barriers to block traffic. At this time, we are working with Georgia DOT and private engineers to determine the quickest and most cost efficient solution. Traffic to Roy Road north of Holt Bridge Road will need to be detoured through Rackley Road and Macedonia Road until further notice.
